Short answer questions

I have this question:- 

A liquid stream can contain {1:SHORTANSWER:%100%dissolved#Correct ~*#The correct answer is dissolved.} gas or {1:SHORTANSWER:%100%entrained#Correct ~*#The correct answer is entrained.} gas. (One word each, these MUST be in ALPHABETICAL order, please).

I don't have much experience yet in question programming, I have had a student answer this with the correct solutions, but in the wrong order. I have added the MUST and changed Alphabetical to Bold.

Is there a better way to write this question, so that it does not matter which way around the answers are?

Can anyone help me please?

In case there is a possibility to install plugins, use the gapfill question type. It does exactly what you need and it will make your life easier in general.

A liquid stream can contain [dissolved|entrained] gas or [dissolved|entrained] gas.

In the option you set "no duplicates".

If this isn't an option consider to give the first letter as a hint.
