Do your best, but don't stress. Sometimes it is hard to choose between potential answer choices, and difficult to know for certain if you are correct. Other people are also completing these tasks, and the PE system will find the consensus among your answers and highlights. Although PE tasks appear like the quizzes and tests we took in school, no one is grading you or judging you. Your best effort is more than good enough.
