Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

While heuristics and algorithms can be used to solve problems, they are not applicable to describing language structure. Syntax refers to the ordering of words in a sentence, while grammar encompasses a broader range of rules, including syntax, semantics, and phonology. Therefore, the best choice is C) grammar, as it encompasses all the rules that make up a language communication system.
