Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

Meaningful learning is the process of making connections between individual items of information as you attempt to make sense of the information and store it in your long-term memory. When connections are made in the information, the information acts as a large chunk, which reduces cognitive load on working memory. This is essential since the capacity of working memory is limited.
