Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Process-type questions require learners to think through a concept, analyse relationships, explore alternatives or construct an answer. Divergent questions encourage multiple possible responses, concept-based questions require understanding of underlying ideas, and higher-order questions involve analysis, synthesis or evaluation. Fact-based and lower-order questions mainly test recall of content. Therefore, A, C and E are the process-type questions.
