Shape,Animate
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Flash supports two types of tweening: motion tweening (moves objects from point A to B) and shape tweening (morphs one shape into another).
A
Correct answer
Explanation
GIF animation works by sequencing multiple GIF images with timing delays between frames, creating the illusion of motion. Software like Photoshop or dedicated GIF tools layers these frames into a single animated GIF file. This technique predates modern video formats and remains useful for simple animations.
A
Correct answer
Explanation
GIF animation works by sequencing multiple GIF images with timing delays between frames, creating the illusion of motion. Software like Photoshop or dedicated GIF tools layers these frames into a single animated GIF file. This technique remains useful for simple web animations and memes.

Translation
-
Composite
-
Rotation
-
Scaling
B
Correct answer
Explanation
The basic 2D transformations in CAD and computer graphics are Translation, Rotation, Scaling, Reflection, and Shearing. Composite transformations are not basic - they are formed by combining two or more basic transformations through matrix multiplication, making them derived rather than fundamental.

Canvas
-
View Object
-
Sandbox
-
Paper
A
Correct answer
Explanation
Canvas is the correct answer because it provides a direct drawing surface for applications that need frequent redraws. View Objects are for UI hierarchy, Sandboxes are for security isolation, and Paper is not a standard graphics component. Canvas allows immediate mode rendering where the application controls when and what gets drawn.
A
Correct answer
Explanation
Key frames in animation are indeed drawings or frames that define the starting and ending points of smooth transitions, with intermediate frames (tweens) generated between them. This is a fundamental concept in traditional and digital animation, dating back to hand-drawn animation workflows.
A
Correct answer
Explanation
In animation systems, a sequence of keyframes defines the movement or property changes that the viewer sees. Each keyframe specifies a property value at a specific point in time, and the system interpolates between them to create smooth animation.

Motion Tween
-
Time Line
-
Story Board
-
Animation
C
Correct answer
Explanation
In WPF/XAML, animations are incorporated using Storyboard objects. A Storyboard is a container timeline that groups and controls child animations. Options A (Motion Tween) and B (Time Line) are animation concepts from other technologies (Flash/Flex). Option D (Animation) is too generic - Storyboard is the specific XAML mechanism for defining and controlling animations in styles and templates.
-
Visualization
-
Model Analysis
-
Transformation
-
Profiling
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Model transformation converts elements from one model representation to another. For example, UML to code generation transforms model elements into implementation elements. Visualization displays models, Model Analysis examines properties, and Profiling characterizes model elements - none convert between models.
-
A type of animation entrance effect
-
A method of advancing slides
-
A method of moving items on a slide
-
All of the above
-
None of these
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Motion paths animate objects moving along defined trajectories across a slide. Entrance effects control how items appear, not movement.

-
Digitisation
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Virtual reality (VR) is a term that applies to computer simulated environments that can simulate physical presence.

Evolutionary prototyping
-
Low fidelity prototyping
-
Waterfall model
D
Correct answer
Explanation
It simulates the proposed product in some very rudimentary way even by pencil and paper or by slides.

Exploratory prototyping
-
Waterfall model
C
Correct answer
Explanation
It is intended to closely mimic the look and feel and the responsiveness of the system including its temporal delay characteristics.

-
Shearing
B
Correct answer
Explanation
The translation process moves all points of an object at a fixed distance in a specified direction.
