Answer: B distance and direction

Explanation:

Displacement is a vector quantity. It consists of distance and direction.

It is the shortest path between initial position and final position. It is always measured in a straight line.

Displacement = Final position - Initial position.

Distance is the total path which a body covers but displacement is the shortest distance. Distance is a scalar quantity.
