Right-clicking on something on screen is a common action to open up a context menu that provides additional options or actions related to the selected item.

This menu allows for quick access to various commands without cluttering the main interface, enhancing user efficiency and convenience.

7. If the content on an webpage goes outside the bounds of the page's veiwing area, what can you do to see the rest of the information?

Explanation

To see the rest of the information on a webpage when it goes outside the viewing area, you can use the scroll bar on the side or bottom of the page. By dragging the scroll bar up or down, you can navigate through the content that is not currently visible on the screen. This allows you to access and read the information that extends beyond the boundaries of the webpage.

8. To click on an item like a link, or to click on a bubble to fill out a form, which part of the mouse has to be on top of the link or bubble?

The correct answer is the point of the cursor/arrow only. When clicking on an item like a link or a bubble to fill out a form, only the point of the cursor/arrow needs to be on top of the link or bubble. Other parts of the cursor/arrow do not need to be directly on top for the click to register.

Submit
9. When you are finished viewing a new or pop-up window or tab, what do you do?

Explanation

Clicking on the small "x" button to exit the specific tab or window I'm finished looking at is the correct answer because it allows the user to close the newly opened window or tab and return to the original page they were on. This action helps to keep the browsing experience organized and prevents cluttering of multiple open windows or tabs.
