Questions using sequence
Problem 1
Answer and explanation
An arrangement showing order or steps. Identify how ideas are related: in time, by a proposed cause, through shared comparison criteria, or as a problem and response. A text can use several structures within different sections. Describe the relationship in the relevant passage rather than force one label onto everything.
Use the model to discuss reasoning after an independent attempt. A different accurate supported response can be correct; written work needs human marking.
Problem 2
Answer and explanation
An arrangement showing order or steps. The unit case offers this example to examine: The procedure uses sequence to show an order of actions. The missing-record passage explains a category distinction and the consequence of confusing categories. Order alone does not establish that one event caused another; the second explanation gives a reason for a recording rule. Identify the wording or choice that fits the term. A different accurate example is acceptable.
