Question

In which every block-level element appears on a new line?

(a) normal flow

(b) relative positioning

(c) absolute positioning

(d) floating positioning

This question was posed to me in an international level competition.

Origin of the question is Specifying Bullet Point Styles, CSS Image Alignment, ID and Class in chapter Layout & Images of CSS

Answer 1

Correct answer is (a) normal flow

To explain: Every block-level element appears on a new line, which causes each item to appear lower down the page than the previous one. Even if we specify the width of the boxes and there is space for two elements to sit side by side, they will not appear next to each other.
