  2. body:color=black

  3. {body:color=black(body}

  4. {body;color:black}

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

CSS uses selector {property: value} syntax, where the selector targets an HTML element and the declaration block in braces contains styles. Option A correctly shows 'body {color: black}' with proper selector, braces, and property-value colon separator. Option B incorrectly uses equals sign instead of colon, Option C misplaces braces outside the selector, and Option D uses semicolon instead of colon before the value.

  1. background-color:

  2. bgcolor:

  3. color:

  4. backgroundcolor:

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The background-color property sets an element's background color in CSS. bgcolor is an obsolete HTML attribute (not CSS), while color only changes text color, not the background. Option D is incorrect because CSS uses hyphens in multi-word properties, making it 'background-color' not 'backgroundcolor'.

  1. all.h1 {background-color:#FFFFFF}

  2. h1 {background-color:#FFFFFF}

  3. h1.all {background-color:#FFFFFF}

  4. h1.all {color:#FFFFFF}

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

To style all elements of a type, use the element name directly as the selector without modifiers. 'h1 {background-color:#FFFFFF}' correctly targets all h1 elements. Options A and C incorrectly add '.all' which is not valid CSS syntax for targeting all elements of a type, and Option D changes the wrong property (color instead of background-color).
