What panel is where you organize your layers and control your keyframes?

The Timeline Panel is the correct choice for organizing layers and controlling keyframes in Adobe After Effects. This panel provides a linear representation of your composition over time, allowing you to see how layers are stacked, their order, and how they interact. Each layer appears as a separate track in the Timeline Panel, and you can easily adjust the timing of each layer by dragging it along the timeline.

Keyframes, which define the start and end points of animations or changes in properties, are also managed within this panel. You can set keyframes for various properties, such as position, scale, and opacity, directly in the Timeline Panel. The visual cues provided—such as the diamond shape used to denote keyframes—make it intuitive to work with animations and transitions over time.

Other panels serve different purposes; for example, the Effects and Presets panel is primarily used to apply effects and access preset animations but does not focus on layer management or keyframe control. The Layer Panel provides detailed information about individual layers but isn't where the keyframes are primarily organized in a timeline context. The Composition Panel showcases the visual output of your project but does not allow for the structural adjustments needed for layers and keyframes.
