(c) Identify parts that affect accuracies from the assembly drawing.

The parts are the 3 red lettered parts from b) above. (see [Fig.1])
 *Base
 *Y axis base mounting plate
 *Y axis base

(d) Match the assembly datum features of parts and enter into drawings the dimension specifications that enable high accuracies.

This is shown on [Fig.1]. The datum shown is referenced for specifying locations of assembling reference dowel holes.
