Arrange the stages of the creative process in the correct order:

A. Preparation
B. Illumination
C. Verification
D. Incubation

Correct option is D

The creative process, as described by Graham Wallas, involves the following stages:

1. Preparation (A): Gathering information, defining the problem, and brainstorming possible solutions.

2. Incubation (D): Letting the subconscious mind work on the problem without focused attention. This stage allows for reflection and connections to form naturally.

3. Illumination (B): The "aha" moment where a solution or idea suddenly emerges. This often follows a period of incubation.

4. Verification (C): Testing and refining the solution or idea to ensure its feasibility and effectiveness.
