    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    When creating a capital letter, it is recommended to use the opposite hand's pinky finger to press the Shift key.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because the home row keys are actually the keys where your fingers naturally rest when you are typing.

The keys mentioned in the question (ASDF for the left hand and HJKL for the right hand) are not the home row keys.
