In regards to chunking:
A
Experts use more rules than novices to get to the same solution
B
Experts use less rules than novices to get to the same solution
C
Experts and novices use the same amount of rules, but experts work it out faster due to existing knowledge
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In terms of heuristics, experts are more likely to use a working-forward strategy, whereas novices are more likely to use a working-backward strategy. In addition, experts tend to monitor their problem solving more carefully than do novices, and they are also more successful in reaching appropriate solutions.

Detailed explanation-2: -In short, learning is the process by which novices become experts. As one learns chess, math, or physics, one’s problem-solving performance in the domain improves as the programs one uses to solve problems improve.

Detailed explanation-3: -Thus when novices learn, they see the new information as more or less random data points. By contrast, when experts learn, they immediately categorize the new information and plug it into the appropriate part of their mental model of the discipline.

Detailed explanation-4: -Experts start with general equations, while novices start with specific equations. Novices tend to use a “means-to-an-end” approach, in other words, work backwards (the answer defines they way to solve or approach the problem), while experts work forward, checking logic and answers as they go.
