Analyze the parts of thought and reasoning and re-organize the eight elements into four distinct categories by pairing elements together similar to the example above. briefly describe each new category you created and present your reasoning for each category. include the characteristics of the original eight elements in your descriptions and reasoning.

The eight elements of thought and reasoning are part of the Critical Thinking model. They are listed as follows:
1. Information
2. Assumptions
3. Implications and consequences
4. Point of View
5. Interpretations
6. Concepts
7. Purpose
8. Question 
The elements are paired together into categories by putting the identical elements into pairs. The four categories are as follows:
1. Purpose is paired with Assumption
2. Question and Concepts are paired together
3. Information is paired with Point of View
4. Interpretations and,  Implications and Consequences are paired together.
We are not always aware of these elements when we think. They are very often part of our unconscious thought processes. 

The answer should be d.
