tuple quiz question: what is expected in the blanks?

What is expected in the underlined?

Dictionaries use what special operator to unpack: for example, when using str.format( ____________ my_dictionary ). Tuples, however, use the alternative string.format( ___________ my_tuple).

dictionaries use .items method and tuples use enumerate() function. When I enter versions of those answers, I get the question wrong.

Thanks.

The * (or some variant) will be used as a way to say "all of them" elsewhere as well.
