    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer

Themes in presentation software like PowerPoint are designed to provide a consistent look and feel to the slides, but users have the flexibility to apply different themes to individual slides or groups of slides within the presentation. This allows for customization and the ability to create unique designs for specific slides while maintaining a cohesive overall theme for the presentation. Therefore, the given answer is false.

    Explanation
    Resizing a picture without the Lock Aspect Ratio option selected can result in distortion and an uneven appearance. By selecting the Lock Aspect Ratio option, the picture will maintain its original proportions while being resized. This ensures that the picture remains proportional and avoids any stretching or squishing of the image.

  • 11. 

    Which handout option must you choose if you want to include lines for audience notes?

    • A.

      3 slides per page

    • B.

      1 slide per page

    • C.

      Notes Pages.

    Correct Answer
    A. 3 slides per page
    Explanation
    If you want to include lines for audience notes, you must choose the option of "3 slides per page". This option allows you to have multiple slides on a single page, with each slide taking up a smaller portion of the page.

The other options mentioned, such as applying the Fly In entrance effect with Very Slow speed or using the animation scheme Fade in one by one, do not specifically address the letter-by-letter effect.
