Question 1/9

Which of the following are web browsers? (Select two.)

Right Answer
Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome are both popular web browsers used to access and navigate websites. Google is a search engine, not a browser, and Bing is also a search engine. Microsoft Visio is used for diagramming and is not designed for browsing the web. Therefore, Firefox and Chrome are the correct browser options.
Question 2/9

Which of the following applications can be used for storing, modifying, extracting, and searching data?

Right Answer
Database software is specifically designed to store, manage, search, and update data efficiently. It allows users to run queries, create records, and extract useful information from large datasets. Examples include Microsoft Access, MySQL, and Oracle. The other listed options are not designed for this purpose.
Question 3/9

When composing an email message, why might you want to use the Bcc field?

Right Answer
The Bcc (Blind Carbon Copy) field allows the sender to copy recipients without revealing their email addresses to others. This maintains privacy, especially when emailing large groups. It’s useful for confidentiality or protecting identities in group communications. It’s different from the "Cc" field, where all recipients are visible.
Question 4/9

What is junk email?

Right Answer
Junk email, also known as spam, refers to unwanted and unsolicited messages usually sent in bulk. These messages often advertise products or contain phishing scams. Email services filter them into a "Junk" or "Spam" folder to reduce clutter. Junk email is not defined by grammar or formatting, but by its unsolicited nature.
Question 5/9

Which of the following digital communication media does NOT require a connection to the Internet?

Right Answer
SMS (Short Message Service) works over cellular networks, not the internet. It allows text communication between mobile phones even when an internet connection is unavailable.
