The correct advantage of a screw over a nail is:
**A screw can be inserted with less force than a nail.**
Screws have threads that allow them to grip the material more effectively, which means they can hold tightly with less force compared to nails, which rely on friction and shear strength. Additionally, the design of screws allows them to be driven into materials with a turning motion, making them easier to insert with less force.
