    Explanation
    Parody is sometimes a good example of fair use. Fair use is a legal principle that allows for the limited use of copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. Parody falls under fair use because it is a form of commentary or criticism that uses elements of the original work in a humorous or satirical manner. It is considered fair use because it transforms the original work and adds new meaning or value to it.

    Explanation
    Prior approval for the proposed use by a copyright owner is commonly referred to as "permission." This means that the copyright owner has granted authorization for the specific use of their copyrighted material. Permission is necessary to legally use copyrighted works, as it ensures that the copyright owner's rights are respected and protected. Without permission, using copyrighted material could potentially lead to copyright infringement and legal consequences.

      Fun

    • C. 

      Original

    • D. 

      Appropriate

    Correct Answer
    C. Original
    Explanation
    To qualify for copyright protection, a work must be original. This means that it must be created independently and not be a copy of someone else's work. Originality is a key requirement for copyright protection as it ensures that creators have the exclusive rights to their own creations and prevents others from infringing on their work without permission.

    True or FalseIt is illegal for anyone to copy and distribute a poem you right in Language Arts.

    • A. 

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    It is true that it is illegal for anyone to copy and distribute a poem you write in Language Arts without your permission. This is because as the creator of the poem, you hold the copyright to your work, which gives you exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, and display it. Therefore, anyone who copies and distributes your poem without your permission would be infringing on your copyright and could face legal consequences.

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Procedures and methods are not copyrighted. Copyright law protects original works of authorship such as books, music, and artwork, but it does not extend to procedures or methods. These are generally considered functional or utilitarian aspects and are not eligible for copyright protection. However, they may be protected under other forms of intellectual property, such as patents or trade secrets, depending on the specific circumstances.

      Operas

    • B. 

      Plays

    • C. 

      Architectural Works

    • D. 

      Accompanying music

    Correct Answer
    C. Architectural Works
    Explanation
    Dramatic Works typically refer to literary works that are intended to be performed on stage, such as plays and operas. Architectural works, on the other hand, pertain to the design and construction of buildings and structures. While both can be considered creative forms of expression, architectural works do not fall under the category of Dramatic Works as they are not meant to be performed in a theatrical setting. Therefore, the correct answer is Architectural Works.

This term implies that all individuals involved have contributed equally and collaborated in the creation of the work. Joint work emphasizes the collective effort and shared responsibility of the individuals involved in the project.

    True or FalseSometimes one must pay "permission fees" to use a copyrighted work.

    • A. 

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Copyright laws grant exclusive rights to the creators of original works, including the right to control the use and distribution of their work. In some cases, when someone wants to use a copyrighted work, they must obtain permission from the copyright owner. This permission often comes with a fee, known as a "permission fee," which is paid in exchange for the right to use the work legally. Therefore, it is true that sometimes one must pay "permission fees" to use a copyrighted work.

    • A. 

      When registered with Copyright office

    • B. 

      Immediately when work is created

      When work is published

    • D. 

      When notice is given to public

    Correct Answer
    B. Immediately when work is created
    Explanation
    Copyright takes effect immediately when a work is created. This means that as soon as an original piece of work is fixed in a tangible form, such as being written down or recorded, it is automatically protected by copyright law. Registration with the Copyright office is not required for copyright protection, although it can provide additional benefits and legal advantages. Publishing the work or giving notice to the public are not necessary for copyright to take effect.
