Unit review questions
1. Music-playing program. Choose the category.
Need a hint?
  • Classify by physical equipment versus instructions, not by whether the item is visible on a screen.
  • An app icon represents software; it is not the program’s physical body.
2. New music edit unsaved before power ended. In the stated model, what is supported?
Need a hint?
  • Check whether this model says the work was saved before power ended.
  • Do not assume an open drawing is saved just because it is visible.
3. Correct a typed spelling. Choose from the supplied menu.
Need a hint?
  • Match the requested change or output to the supplied tool’s purpose.
  • A sound player cannot edit a picture in this supplied menu.
4. An unwanted file is selected. Choose the useful first check.
Need a hint?
  • Use the clue to choose one allowed check, then observe whether the stated problem changes.
  • Never open equipment or handle damaged cables to test an idea.

The download contains your current choices and any checked feedback. Keep the separate transfer-task work in your own document; downloading its instructions does not mark it complete.

Use the skills in a new task

Use the pretend record: a drawing is saved, a music edit is unsaved, and the app sound is muted. Name the hardware/software distinction, what remains after shutdown and one safe sound check.

Work on paper or in your own document. Explain the choices you made.

  • Use the pretend details in the task and name the rule you followed.
  • Show the steps or point to the detail that helped you choose.
  • Say one mistake to avoid or one thing this example cannot tell us.
  • Check your answer against the task. Change a part if you can show why it needs fixing.
Compare with a model response

The screen is hardware and the music app is software. In the stated model the saved drawing remains but the unsaved edit does not. I check the sound setting first; I do not open the device.

A different response can also meet the criteria. Compare the evidence and reasoning, rather than copying the wording.
