Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: In some instances, a list can be more effective than conventional sentences and paragraphs. Lists can show the sequence of your ideas, heighten their impact visually, and increase the likelihood that readers will find your key points. In addition, lists help simplify complex subjects, highlight the main points, enable skimming, and give readers a visual break.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: Well-written informative headings are self-contained, which means readers can skim just the headings and subheadings and understand them without reading the rest of the document.
