In Photoshop, Grayscale is a color mode.
- A.
T
- B.
F
Correct Answer
A. TExplanation
Grayscale is indeed a color mode in Photoshop. When an image is converted to grayscale, it means that the image will only contain shades of gray, ranging from black to white. This color mode is commonly used for black and white photographs or when color is not necessary for an image. In Photoshop, users can easily convert an image to grayscale by selecting the "Image" menu, then "Mode," and finally "Grayscale."Rate this question:

If an object is opaque, it can be translucent but not transparent.
- A.
T
- B.
F
Correct Answer
B. FExplanation
The statement is incorrect. If an object is opaque, it cannot be translucent or transparent. An opaque object does not allow any light to pass through it, whereas a translucent object allows some light to pass through but scatters it, making objects on the other side appear blurry. A transparent object allows light to pass through it without scattering, making objects on the other side clearly visible. Therefore, an opaque object cannot be translucent or transparent.Rate this question:

Multiply is a good solution for removing the white background of a placed graphic.
- A.
T
- B.
F
Correct Answer
A. TExplanation
Multiply is a good solution for removing the white background of a placed graphic because the Multiply blending mode multiplies the color values of the graphic with the color values of the underlying layers. Since white has a value of 255, multiplying any color value with 255 will result in the same color value. Therefore, when a graphic with a white background is set to Multiply blending mode, the white background will become transparent, allowing the underlying layers to show through.Rate this question:

To colorize the highlight areas of a plaed grayscale graphic, slecet the graphic with which tool?
- A.
Selection tool
- B.
Direct selection tool
- C.
Multiply
- D.
Transparency palette
Correct Answer
A. Selection toolExplanation
The selection tool is used to choose or select specific areas or objects in a graphic. In this case, to colorize the highlight areas of a grayscale graphic, you would need to select those areas using the selection tool. This tool allows you to create a selection around the desired areas, which can then be modified or filled with color to achieve the desired effect. The direct selection tool is used to select individual anchor points or paths within a graphic, and therefore would not be suitable for coloring highlight areas. Multiply and transparency palette are not tools, but rather options or settings that affect the appearance of colors or objects in a graphic.Rate this question:

In order to colorize a grayscale graphic in InDesign, the graphic must be saved in photoshop as which file?
- A.
.psd
- B.
.eps
- C.
.tif
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. .psdExplanation
To colorize a grayscale graphic in InDesign, the graphic must be saved in Photoshop as a .psd file. This is because .psd files preserve all the layers, transparency, and other important information needed for editing and colorizing the graphic. Saving the file in any other format, such as .eps or .tif, may result in loss of information and limitations in the colorization process. Therefore, saving the graphic as a .psd file ensures that all the necessary data is retained for successful colorization in InDesign.Rate this question:

When you apply the multiply blending mode, white areas of an object_________.
- A.
Stay white
- B.
Become transparent
- C.
Become black
- D.
Become semi-transparent
Correct Answer
B. Become transparentExplanation
When the multiply blending mode is applied, white areas of an object become transparent. This is because the multiply blending mode multiplies the color values of the underlying layers with the color values of the current layer. Since white has a color value of 1, when it is multiplied with any other color value, the result will be the same as the other color value. In the case of transparency, the color value becomes 0, resulting in the white areas becoming transparent.Rate this question:

When you apply the screen blending mode, white areas of an object_______.
- A.
Stay white
- B.
Become transparent
- C.
Become black
- D.
Become semi-transparent
Correct Answer
A. Stay whiteExplanation
When you apply the screen blending mode, white areas of an object stay white. The screen blending mode is a blending mode in graphics software that lightens the underlying layers by multiplying the inverse of the blend color. In this case, since white is the lightest color, it does not change when the screen blending mode is applied.Rate this question:
