      Solution

      Merge Sort exemplifies Divide and Conquer:        Divide: It divides the unsorted list into 'N' sublists, each containing one element (a list of one element is considered sorted).        Conquer: It repeatedly merges sublists to produce new sorted sublists until there is only one sorted list remaining.        Combine: The merging process combines the sorted sublists.
