How do you arrange UI elements in Jetpack Compose?

Tests your grasp of Compose's declarative layout model. Explain `Row` (horizontal) and `Column` (vertical) as the core layout composables. Define `Modifier` as the standard way to configure size, spacing, and behavior.
This tests your fundamental understanding of Compose's declarative layout model. A strong answer first identifies `Row` for horizontal and `Column` for vertical arrangements. It then explains `Modifier` as a crucial, ordered chain of objects used to add decoration (padding), constraints (size), and behavior (click listeners). A common red flag is describing `Modifier` as only for basic styling like padding, missing its much broader role in defining a composable's full behavior and appearance.
