Match each excerpt to its poetic style. (Tiles) enjambment iambic pentameter blank verse
Brrunno [24]
I don't think that your options match your tiles - you must have copied them wrong. I can only match iambic pentameter with D. each foot consists of one unstressed followed by a stressed syllable.
However, enjambment has nothing to do with the stress in syllables, but rather with the fact that some poets like to continue a sentence in a poem into the next line, without the use of commas or other pauses. Blank verse is a type of a verse that doesn't have a rhyme, and is made up of iambic pentameters.

"the tenant men scuffed home to the farms through the red dust." Which sentence best describes Steinbeck's diction here?
lesantik [10]
The diction of Steinbeck here in apparently describing the dustbowl conditions of the Dirty Thirties is speaking of "tenant men" or presumably men who were tenant farmers perhaps who were allowed to live on the land in return for working it and that they "scuffed"  their way home indicates that the dust was so thick they had to scuff but also perhaps that since they could barely make a living under the poor agricultural conditions they did not walk confidently but scuffed.
