Question 1: The word with a different stress pattern from the others is D. "transportation".

In English, stress patterns are determined by the syllable that is emphasized when the word is pronounced. For "energy", "definitely", and "probably", the stress falls on the first syllable (EN-ergy, DEF-inite-ly, PROB-ably). However, for "transportation", the stress falls on the fourth syllable (trans-por-TA-tion).

Question 2: The word with a different stress pattern from the others is A. "touchscreen".

For "delivery", "security", and "control", the stress falls on the first syllable (DE-livery, SE-curity, CON-trol). However, for "touchscreen", the stress falls on the first syllable, but it is a compound word, so the second part of the word also carries secondary stress (TOUCH-screen).
