Solution

The correct answer is "I and II only".

Explanation:

I. Examples of prose are novels and short stories. - This is TRUE. Prose is a form of language that has no formal metrical structure. It applies a natural flow of speech, and ordinary grammatical structure rather than rhythmic structure, such as in the case of traditional poetry. Novels and short stories are examples of prose.

II. Prose uses conventional language. - This is TRUE. Prose is written in complete sentences and organized in paragraphs. Instead of focusing on sound, which is what poetry does, prose tends to focus on plot and characters. It uses conventional language and structure.

III. Prose includes rhyme, metre, and rhythm. - This is FALSE. Unlike poetry, prose does not rely on rhyme, metre, or rhythm. Prose is more straightforward and tends to focus on the content, rather than the form.
