A multiple choice question is a type of question where the respondent is given a list of options or alternatives, and they must select the correct answer from those options.
Multiple choice questions are commonly used in various educational settings, assessments, surveys, and exams because they provide a structured and efficient way to present a range of possible answers and evaluate the respondent's knowledge or understanding of a given topic.
