Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The digital divide refers to the gap between those who have access to technological devices and the internet and those who do not. Option C illustrates this gap as poorer families have less access to the internet compared to middle-class families. Options A and D do not illustrate the digital divide as they do not indicate differences in access to technology. Option B is unrelated to the digital divide as it refers to investments in technology stocks rather than access to technology.
