Accepted Answer

This is true. Each slide in a presentation has a layout that sets the arrangement of placeholders for text, images, and other types of content on the slide.

Question 2

Anusha wants to use her computer, rather than handwriting the information on her notepad, to analyze her monthly expenses to make the job easier. Which of the following apps should she use?
A) A word processor app to keep a record of her expenses and make calculations
B) A personal interest app to keep a track of all the expenses based on her personal interests
C) A device management app to track all the expenses she makes using her credit and debit cards
D) A spreadsheet app to keep a record of her expenses, sort data, and make calculations

Accepted Answer

A spreadsheet app is the best choice for Anusha as it allows her to keep a record of her expenses, sort data, and make calculations. It is specifically designed for organizing and analyzing numerical data, and therefore, is ideal for managing expenses. A word processing app may be used to keep a record, but it is not designed to perform calculations, and data cannot be easily sorted like in a spreadsheet app. Personal interest and device management apps may be useful, but they do not provide the necessary features to track and analyze expenses.

Question 3

Jim wants to develop an app for a specific purpose that would run even when his computer is not connected to the Internet. What type of app should he develop?
A) Mobile app
B) Native app
C) Web-based app
D) Cloud-based app

Accepted Answer

A native app is designed to run on a specific platform or device and does not require an internet connection to function. It can be accessed and used even when the device is not connected to the internet. Mobile apps and web-based apps require an internet connection to function, while cloud-based apps are hosted on remote servers and accessed through an internet connection.

Question 4

LensForAll is a company that sells affordable contact lenses on its website. The CEO of the company realizes that an app must be developed that would allow customers to virtually try on colored lenses to find out what best suits them. Which of these features should the app have?
A) It should be a local app so that users can install it.
B) It should be be part of a productivity suite so users can multitask.
C) It should have responsive design so that it is easy to use on mobile devices.
D) It should be a portable app so that it is quick to use.

Accepted Answer

The app should have responsive design so that it is easy to use on mobile devices, as customers would likely want to try on lenses using their phones or tablets. Being a local or portable app and being part of a productivity suite are not necessary for the app's main purpose.

Question 5

Rob is planning his housewarming party. He wants to design an invitation and personalize it for each invitee. He needs to create a list of invitees, design the card, and personalize the card. How should he complete the tasks?
A) Use a word processor for step 1, graphics software for step 2, and a mail merge for step 3.
B) Use a graphics software for step 1, mail merge for step 2, and a word processor for step 3.
C) Use a word processor for steps 1 and 2 and a graphics software for step 3.
D) Use mail merge for steps 1 and 2 and a word processor for step 3.

Accepted Answer

A word processor is ideal for creating and managing lists (step 1), graphics software is suited for designing cards (step 2), and a mail merge combines the personalized information with the design for each invitee (step 3).

Question 6

Samantha plans to self-publish her book on her website. Which of the following apps should she use to design the cover?
A) video-editing app
B) word processor
C) graphics app
D) spreadsheet

Accepted Answer

Samantha should use a graphics app to design the cover of her book as it provides the necessary tools and features to create professional-looking designs. Video-editing apps focus on creating video content, word processors are used for writing and editing text, and spreadsheets are used for organizing and analyzing data.

Question 7

Simone frequently downloads mobile apps from the Amazon App Store. What operating system does she have on her smartphone?
A) Blackberry
B) Android
C) iOS
D) Windows

A) Open File Manager.
B) Open the Start menu.
C) Open Finder.
D) Open the main Properties dialog box.

Accepted Answer

Question 9

Shania has started a new job as an app developer. Her first task was to make an old app designed for Android available on other platforms. Which of the following would make her job easiest and fastest?
A) Develop different versions of the same app for different programs.
B) Use cross-platform tools to write code that will translate the existing Android app code into different native formats.
C) Feed the existing code into cross-platform tools to develop different versions of the same app.
D) Use the same set of codes for different platforms.

Accepted Answer

Using cross-platform tools to write code that can automatically translate the existing Android app code into different native formats will make Shania's job easiest and fastest. This allows her to reuse much of the existing code while still providing access to the app on multiple platforms. Option A would require Shania to develop different versions of the same app from scratch, which would be time-consuming and inefficient. Option C suggests feeding the existing code into cross-platform tools to develop different versions, which is essentially the same as option B. Option D is unclear and does not provide enough detail.

Question 10

Lauren wants to write short articles and post them online. If she has an Internet connection, what software can help her do her work?
A) OpenOffice Writer
B) Zoho writer
C) Prezi app
D) Venmo

Accepted Answer

OpenOffice Writer and Zoho Writer are both word processing software programs that can be used to write articles and post them online. Prezi app is a presentation software and Venmo is a mobile payment app, neither of which would be helpful for Lauren's writing and posting needs.

Dropbox is a cloud storage service that allows users to store files online and access them from any device, making it suitable for sharing interior design projects with clients.

Question 12

Jamie plans to sell his pottery designs through his website. If he also wants to launch a mobile app to reach more people, which type of app should he launch?
A) M-commerce app
B) Banking and finance app
C) Photo editing app
D) Social media app

Accepted Answer

Jamie should launch an M-commerce app since he wants to sell his pottery designs through his website. This will allow his customers to easily browse and purchase his designs using their mobile devices. The other options (banking and finance, photo editing, and social media) do not align with his business needs.

Question 13

Abe is creating a presentation and wants to grab the audience's attention with a visual effect when he moves from one slide to another. What should he add to the presentation?
A) animations
B) transitions
C) videos
D) sounds

Accepted Answer

Transitions can create a visual effect when moving from one slide to another, grabbing the audience's attention without being too distracting or overwhelming. Animations, videos, and sounds can also be effective but may not be the best choice for every presentation or slide.

Question 15

An organization has its employees working from home. Which type of software most likely includes collaboration features to help the employees work together online?
A) Local apps
B) Web apps
C) Portable apps
D) Device management apps

Accepted Answer

Web apps are designed to be used via a web browser, making them accessible from any device with an internet connection. Many web apps include collaboration features such as real-time document editing, video conferencing, and project management tools, making them ideal for organizations with remote employees who need to work together online. Local apps and portable apps are installed directly on a device and may not have the same level of collaboration features, while device management apps are typically used to manage and secure devices rather than facilitate collaboration.

Question 16

Aaron has started a food blog on which he wants to post his recipes. He wants to place a high-quality image next to each cooking step. Which file format should he use so that users do not experience a lag when loading the high-quality images on the website?
A) TIFF
B) JPEG
C) DOC
D) GIF

Accepted Answer

JPEG files are the most suitable for web use as they have a smaller file size compared to TIFF and GIF files, and they maintain high-quality images. Using JPEG files will prevent lag when loading images on the website. DOC is a document file format and not suitable for images. GIF files are best used for small images or animations.

Question 17

Logan is considering web app development as a career option. Which of the following languages does he not need to master?
A) CSS
B) JavaScript
C) HTML5
D) Visual Basic

Accepted Answer

Logan does not need to master Visual Basic for web app development as it is mainly used for desktop applications and not as widely used in web development. However, CSS, JavaScript, and HTML5 are all essential for web app development. HTML5 is used for creating the structure of the web app, CSS is used for styling and layout, and JavaScript is used for adding interactivity and functionality to the web app.

Question 18

Question 19

Andrew's company uses a special email program for communicating within the organization. What should the company do to ensure that its employees are able to access the inbox even when they are away from office?
A) Have a mobile app developed.
B) Use a generic e-mail software like Gmail.
C) Make the program available as a web app.
D) Design a new e-mail program.

Accepted Answer

Making the program available as a web app would allow employees to access the inbox from any device with internet access, regardless of whether or not they have the company email program installed on their device. This is a more practical and cost-effective solution than developing a mobile app or designing a new email program from scratch. Using a generic email software like Gmail would not allow the company to maintain control over its internal communications and would create potential security risks.

Question 20

Martha has been appointed as the Data Security Manager of her organization. The company wants her to develop a customized app to remove viruses from the infected systems without connecting to the network. What type of app should she focus on developing?
A) portable app
B) mobile app
C) productivity app installed on all devices
D) web app

Accepted Answer

Martha should focus on developing a portable app that can be carried on a USB drive and can be run on the infected systems without connecting to the network. This will prevent any further spread of the virus through the network. A mobile app is not relevant here as it is meant for smartphones and tablets. A productivity app installed on all devices may not necessarily have the required functionality to remove viruses. A web app requires an internet connection to function, which is not appropriate in this case where the infected systems need to be isolated from the network.
