Answer 1

Answer: The selection provided belongs to the process of (D) outlining.

Explanation: The process of outlining follows the brainstorming process and it consists in elaborating a guide in order to organize the information that will be included in each of the sections of a piece of writing. When writing an outline, the author puts numbers and/or letters before each of the elements of these sections, which include summarized information. The selection provided shows the way in which the author pretends to organize the introduction of his piece of writing. Morever, he includes numbers before the elements of the introduction (hook and topic sentence) and letters before the main ideas.

Answer 2

I'm kind of confused as to what you're asking, but this looks like an outline to me. It's easier to see if you lay it out like this:

Introduction

I. Hook: You see them everywhere you look, sometimes out playing or other times in a house.

II. Topic sentence: three areas of information about cats.

           A. Cats are very intelligent animals.

           B. Cats give off tail signals.

           C. Cats are territorial animals.

See? It seems like a plan for an essay, so the correct answer would be D. outlining.
