How to approach this question

Identify methods that represent 'something you have' or 'something you are'.

Full Answer

A code sent via SMS text message., An approval notification in the Microsoft Authenticator app.
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) requires two or more elements: something you know (password), something you have (trusted device like a phone for SMS or Authenticator app), and something you are (biometrics).

Common mistakes

Thinking a second password counts as MFA. It does not, because it is the same factor category (something you know).
