    Choose the correct meaning of the idiom:
    Part and parcel

    Answer & explanation

    'Part and parcel' is a fixed idiom meaning something that is an essential and inseparable part of something else. Example: Hard work is part and parcel of success.
    Why other options are wrong:
    (a) 'A small, unimportant detail' — the idiom actually refers to something important and inseparable, not trivial.
