Answer(s): C
Explanation:
The Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) format is suitable for displaying indexed-color graphics and images on the Web. This format can contain up to 256 colors and is suitable for high-contrast images with sharp edges including type. The GIF file format supports only hard-edged transparency. If the image has variable transparency, it renders the variable transparency, introducing a surrounding matte color. It is used to save animations.
Answer: option D is incorrect. The BMP file format is not supported by the Web. This is a standard Windows image format that supports RGB, Indexed Color, Grayscale, and Bitmap color modes.
Answer: option A is incorrect. Tagged-Image File Format (TIFF) is not supported by the Web. It is used to exchange files between applications and computer platforms. TIFF is a bitmap image format and almost all paint, image-editing, and page-layout applications support it.
Answer: option B is incorrect. The Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) format is suitable for displaying photographs and other continuous-tone images on the Web. This format can contain millions of colors. The JPEG file format does not support transparency.
