Suggested Answer: B

Legal descriptions must be precise and unique so land can be located without confusion.

Accepted forms:

Metes and bounds

Rectangular (government) survey (e.g., ''SW 1/4 of NW 1/4...'')

Lot and block (e.g., subdivision plats)

A street address (Option B) is not a legal description---too general and can change.
