A Correct answer
Explanation

On a standard 5-dot CDI used with VOR/ILS, each dot represents 2 degrees of course deviation. This sensitivity allows pilots to track courses precisely - full-scale deflection (5 dots) indicates 10 degrees off course, which is the typical VOR/ILS full-scale indication.
