Oxford Comma
suggestion

"Factual questions relate to a single item of factual knowledge, with or without an image. They draw from a single area of knowledge and require no interpretation. They can be of varying difficulty, from very simple that all medical students should know to esoteric tidbits only subspecialty consultants with a penchant for trivia will be aware of."

Line 2:57 · Use the Oxford comma in 'knowledge, with or without'.
