How does the writing process help the writer compose an effective essay?

Generates ideas
Identifies the audience
Evaluates sources
Proofreads the final draft

The correct answer is: Generates ideas

The writing process includes several steps, such as brainstorming, outlining, drafting, and revising. These steps help the writer generate and organize their ideas, ensuring that their essay is cohesive and well-developed. While identifying the audience and evaluating sources are important aspects of the writing process, they do not directly contribute to the writer composing an effective essay. Proofreading the final draft is also important, but it comes at the end of the writing process and does not help with the initial composition of the essay. Therefore, option A - generating ideas - is the most accurate and relevant choice in this question.
