What technique should be used to organize a definition essay?

Point-by-Point
Chronological
Spatial
Categories

The correct answer is: Categories

A point-by-point organization would be used to compare and contrast two different subjects. A chronological organization would be used to describe events or occurrences in the order they happened. A spatial organization would be used to describe a physical space or setting. Option D is the most appropriate choice for organizing a definition essay because it organizes the essay by grouping similar ideas or concepts together. This allows for a clearer and more focused understanding of the definition being presented.
