      Double-space

    • B.

      Single-space

    • C.

      Layer

    Correct Answer
    A. Double-space
    Explanation
    The MLA documentation style requires that you double-space the entire paper. This means that there should be a full blank line between each line of text. Double-spacing is used to make the paper more readable and to allow for easier editing and reviewing. It also helps to ensure that there is enough space for the instructor or reader to make comments or corrections. Single-spacing or line spacing would not meet the requirements of the MLA documentation style. The term "layer" is not relevant to the question and does not pertain to formatting requirements.
