* Closed questions are factual and focus on a correct response. ''Some examples are: Name the different parts of a plant? What are the five nutrients that must be present in a balanced diet? How many sides does a triangle have? What is the formula for calculating perimeter of a square? How many planets are there in the solar system? Name two sources of renewable energy.'' | * Closed questions are factual and focus on a correct response. ''Some examples are: Name the different parts of a plant?
