Answer 1

b.he does not use rhyme, but she does.

Step-by-step explanation:

Emily Dickinson's poems have a very well paced writing since she does use some sort of meter and very well defined rhymes. Walt Whitman's poems on the other hand are written in the form of free verse and it's quite rare to see any rhyme on what he writes.

Answer 2

Walther Whitman’s poems are written in a prose- like style and do not follow the standard rules for meter and line length. Emily Dickinson used meter and rhyme in her poems.
