    It is a process that reduces the amount of fragmentation.

    • Dis Fragmentation

    • Defragmentation

    • Disk Cleanup

    • Scandisk

    Correct Answer
    A. Defragmentation
    Explanation
    Defragmentation is the correct answer because it is a process that reduces the amount of fragmentation on a disk. Fragmentation occurs when files are split into smaller pieces and stored in different locations on a disk, leading to slower performance. Defragmentation rearranges these fragmented files, placing them in contiguous blocks, which improves disk read and write speeds. Therefore, defragmentation helps to optimize disk performance by reducing fragmentation.

    A small amount of static electricity that can destroy small parts of your computer.

    • ESD

    • Anti static device

    • Direct Current

    • Alternating Current

    Correct Answer
    A. ESD
    Explanation
    ESD stands for Electrostatic Discharge, which refers to the sudden flow of static electricity between two objects. This discharge can cause damage to electronic components, including small parts of a computer. Therefore, an anti-static device is used to prevent ESD by grounding the static electricity and protecting the computer from potential harm. Direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) are types of electric currents and are not directly related to the issue of static electricity damaging computer parts.

    Devices designed to protect the computer from static electricity.

    • LAN Tester

    • Long Nose Pliers

    • Anti-static devices

    • Anti-static Tools

    Correct Answer
    A. Anti-static devices
    Explanation
    Anti-static devices are specifically designed to protect computers from static electricity. Static electricity can cause damage to computer components, such as the motherboard, RAM, or hard drive. These devices help to dissipate or neutralize static electricity, preventing it from damaging the computer. They can include wrist straps, mats, or grounding cords that are used to safely discharge any static electricity that may be present. By using anti-static devices, computer users can minimize the risk of static electricity-related damage and ensure the longevity and proper functioning of their computer systems.
