Here are the correct organization structure match with definitions:

Spatial: Elizabeth is writing a memoir that describes her favorite campsite in the forest.

Chronological: Kent is writing instructions that provide the steps in a process.

Categorical: Charity is writing an essay and wants to sort related ideas into groups

Compare-contrast: Robert is writing a speech, and he wants the audience to decide between two options.

<h3>Which organizational structure would be best for each situation?</h3>

Spatial is the organizational structure that is mainly used if the author needs to describe the relationship between objects or elements in space.

Chronological organization structure arranges information according to time. It includes elements such as years, words such as before, after, or steps.

Compare and contrast organization structure implies analyzing two elements of the same category, for example, two national parks, and highlighting their differences and commonalities.

Categorical organization groups ideas according to different topics, sub-topics, or categories.
