What is an advantage of using HTML5 APIs when designing Web pages for mobile devices?

• HTML5 APIs use fewer resources than a proprietary browser plug-in does, such as battery power and CPU memory.

• HTML5 APIs eliminate the need for Cascading Style Sheets, thereby saving battery power and CPU memory.

• HTML5 APIs make Web pages non-responsive to varying user screen sizes, thereby saving battery power and CPU memory.

• HTML5 APIs streamline the application of proprietary browser plug-ins when plug-ins are included in Web pages designed for mobile devices.

Which of the following is no longer necessary when you use HTML5 to develop Web pages?

• Installing a third-party plug-in to include video

• Validating your markup code

• Applying a single W3C standard consistently throughout your document

• Using a scripting language to enhance a Web page

Which technology enables you to place formatting instructions in an external text file to determine how HTML elements in a Web page will display?

• HTML5 APIs

• HTML5

• Cascading Style Sheets

• Geolocation

HTML5 has introduced specific elements to structure Web pages. In which structure element should you include hypertext menus to access/navigate various pages of the Web site?

• The <article> structure element

• The <aside> structure element

• The <nav> structure element

• The <section> structure element

Canvas is an HTML5 API that provides a place on a Web page (a "canvas") where you can display graphics, animation, video and games dynamically without the need for a plug-in. Which of the following should you use to create objects on a canvas?

• Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)

• JavaScript

• Flash

• CanvasScript

What does it mean to create Web pages with "responsive design"?

• Your Web pages incorporate languages and technologies such as Java, ActiveX, Microsoft Silverlight and Adobe Flash.

• Your Web pages appear statically regardless of the device used to view them.

• Your Web pages respond to user screen size and work in multiple environments.

• Your code validates properly so that the code will be recognized by most user agents.

Code validation is the process of:

• determining how to display HTML elements in your Web page.

• accessing another point in a Web page or separate Web page.

• creating code that responds to user screen size.

• checking your code to verify that it complies with the syntax rules for your chosen standard.
