Solution

The correct options are
B They have no dimension.
C The ends of a line segment are points.
Euclid defines a point in his elements as follows:
  • A point is that which has no part.
  • The ends of a line segment are points.
Thus, a point has no dimension, which means it is not 1-D or 2-D.
