Answer:

The answer is wrong an Italian sonnet is made of an octave, eight lines long with a rhyme pattern "abbaabba", it raises a question or presents a narrative. The rest of the sonnet is a sestet, six lines long, and it answers the question or elaborates on the narrative from the octave. Therefore, the correct answer would be C for PLATO users.

The structure of an Italian sonnet is two quatrains followed by a sestet, which means that there are 14 lines in total.
A quatrain has 4 lines, and a sestet has 6.
