D Correct answer
Explanation

To solve this question, the user needs to know the full form of GPRS.

The Answer is: D

Explanation:

GPRS stands for General Packet Radio Service. It is a wireless communication service that allows users to send and receive data packets over a cellular network. Option D correctly identifies the full form of GPRS. Option A is incorrect because GPRS does not involve remote systems for positioning. Option B is incorrect because GPRS does not use radio signals for positioning. Option C is almost correct, but it misidentifies the "P" in GPRS as "Position" instead of "Packet".

Multiple choice general knowledge

  3. Hyper Text Translate Protocol

  4. Hyper Text Transform Protocol

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

HTTP stands for HyperText Transfer Protocol, the foundation of data communication on the World Wide Web. It defines how messages are formatted and transmitted between web browsers and servers. Option B incorrectly says 'Transmission' instead of 'Transfer,' Option C incorrectly says 'Translate,' and Option D incorrectly says 'Transform.' The 'Transfer' aspect refers to moving hypertext (linked text and multimedia) resources between clients and servers.
