Look at section 501.10 (A) (1) and section 502.10 (A) (1) wiring methods. I think you'll find your answer. Also look a (B) for division 2.

Thanks for the feedback.
I have already check the article's but that's where I get stuck.
Is it telling me that MC and MI are considered cable or cord.
My problem is that I am from Ireland and the word cord to me just means the same as what I would use for an extension cord.
So in the test I am being asked cleary for one answer and both these types
of cables are listed seperatly. So I'm not clear on which one is the correct one to choose.
Thanks

Mc and Mi are cables. Look at section 501.140 it deals with cords. (B) (1) type listed for extra-hard usage. Welcome to the forum. Article 400 is flexible cords and cables. There are types of cords that are extra hard usage listed in table 400.4

Article 330 will give you a definition of MC cable and article 332 will give definition of MI cable.
