In Shea's sequence, which stage follows the body?

• A. Opening
• B. Closing
• C. Introduction
• D. Termination

Answer: (B)

The sequence moves from introducing the session to presenting the main content, and then to wrapping things up. After the body, the closing comes next because its purpose is to summarize what was covered, reinforce key points, and prepare for the transition toward ending the session. Opening or introduction occur at the start, not after the body, and termination comes after the closing as the formal end. So the stage that follows the body is the closing.
