Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) When creating a list, you can separate items with numbers, letters, or bullets (any kind of graphical element that precedes each item). However, bullets are generally preferred over numbers, unless the list is in some logical sequence or ranking or specific list items will be referred to later.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: E
Explanation: E) 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.
