Answer:

A Both involve the formation of a gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sublimation occurs when it passes from the solid-state to the gaseous state without going through the liquid state.

Evaporation occurs when it passes from the liquid state to the gaseous state.

These processes have in common that the final state they reach is the gaseous state.
