    • Drama

    • Poetry

    • Prose 

    • Music 

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    Music is not a kind of literature because literature refers to written or spoken works of art that have a creative or intellectual value. While music can have artistic and intellectual value, it is primarily an auditory form of expression that uses sound and rhythm, rather than written or spoken words, to convey meaning and emotion. Therefore, music is not considered a form of literature.

It is commonly found in novels, short stories, essays, and non-fiction books, all of which are typically organized into chapters. Poetry, on the other hand, is structured in stanzas or verses, while drama is written in acts and scenes. Music, although it can have lyrics, is primarily composed of melodies and harmonies, not chapters. Therefore, the correct answer is Prose.
