I don't think they're very similar on any of these--and, I've seen the term "Lord's Supper" frequently lately, but I don't know what that is. Is it a new name for communion?

My first guess was the giving of money, but, when I saw my choice of answers, I not sure now. :-(
I will guess Sacraments, they may be different in what they do, but, I guess they both have them.

The only one that's even a possibility is predestination, and then it depends on how Calvinist you are. I'd go with "the deity of Christ", but that isn't one of your options. How did you happen to pick those?

None of the above. Most protestants don't have priests. They have diversified views about the Lord's Supper. Many of their churches don't even know what sacraments are and we do not believe in predestination but many protestants do. The only real belief that we share with them universally just happens to be the most important one. We all believe the same things about Jesus and really that should be enough to keep us from fighting but unfortunately it often isn't.

They are not very similar on any of these issues.
Catholics believe that priests (pastors/ministers) must be celibate. Protestants do not.
Catholics believe the wine and bread actually become the blood and flesh of Jesus during the Lord's supper, Some Protestants believe this some do not.

Catholics believe that there are many sacraments. Protestants believe in 2 baptism and the Lord's supper

I do not know how catholics view predestination but I know protestants differ greatly on the issue. It was the issue that cause the split between the Lutherans and the Calvinists.

The closest would be ,sacraments and that ain't saying much.The New Testament does not use the word priest except for after Christ's 2ND coming("We will be Kings and Priests."..
We don't believe in transubstantiation (Jesus said "Do this in remembrance of me " and "my words are spirit the flesh profits nothing")
The only sacraments are Baptism and the Lord's supper(protestant style) but it is a believer's baptism as Jesus set forth in the last chapter of Matthew.
Predestination is Calvinist and not really a doctrine as much as an opinion.
