      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Selecting features based on attributes is an aspatial selection. As attributes only contain non-spatial descriptive information, selections only using such attributes is not a spatial selection.

    A buffer is a region that is greater than or equal to a distance from features. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    In a clip operation, the geometry from both the clipping layer and data layer are transferred to the resulting layer.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    In a clip operation, only the geometry from the data layer is transferred to the resulting layer. Think of a clip operation like cutting cookies from cookie dough. You don't transfer the cookie cutter to the pan to bake, so you don't transfer the geometry of the clipping layer to the resulting layer.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
