from Mitch.

Answer
We're not supposed to do your homework for you, but if you just Google "seven sacraments" you'd find your answer:

Sacraments of Initiation:

Baptism
Confirmation
Eucharist

Sacraments of Healing:

Confession/Penance/Reconciliation
Last Rites/Extreme Unction/Anointing of the sick

Sacraments of Vocation:

Marriage
Holy Orders

All of the sacraments are physical signs of an invisible reality; all of them impart real grace (sanctifying grace) to the believer, and all are responses to grace (actual grace).

Good luck with your assignment.
