Question 1

The correct answer is: a: A single-page website

Since a single-page website only contains one page, it is least likely to need a navigation bar as there are no other pages to navigate to.

Option B is incorrect as that is more likely to need a navigation bar than a single-page website.

Option C is incorrect as that is most likely to need a navigation bar.

Option D is incorrect as that is more likely to need a navigation bar than a single-page website.

Question 2

The correct answer is: a: True

Question 3

The correct answer is: d: External stylesheets

Question 4

The correct answer is: d: All of the above

Options A, B, and C are all reasons why a website should be made consistent.

Question 5

The correct answer is: b: Web browsers will use their default fonts.

Question 6

The correct answer is: c: Inline styles

Option A is incorrect as that is the second highest priority cascading order.

Option B is incorrect as that is the last priority cascading order.

Option D is incorrect as that is the third highest priority cascading order.

Question 7

The correct answer is: b: False

This statement is false. Writing code to interact with a database is not an example of an element of user experience design. It is an example of an element of backend development.

Question 8

The correct answer is: d: Usability

Question 9

The correct answer is: c: Owned by the W3C

The W3C Web Accessibility Initiative (WIA) develops standards, guidelines, and techniques in relation to accessibility.

Question 10

The correct answer is: b: Only when the user scrolls down to see them.

Lazy loading works by delaying the loading of elements by only loading them when the user scrolls down to see them.

Option A is incorrect as lazy loading does not load elements then.

Option C is incorrect as the user does not have to reach the end of the page to load the elements. That is infinite scrolling functionality.

Option D is incorrect as the user does not have to be on the page for 10 seconds in order for the elements to be loaded.

Question 11

The correct answer is: d: A change in the target audience.

Sometimes, if a business releases a new product or service, the target audience might change. If that happens, a website redesign may need to take place to suit the website to the needs of the new target audience.

Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they are not direct factors that can lead to a website redesign.

Question 12

The correct answer is: a: A poorly redesigned and implemented layout can lead to a decline in the number of visitors.

Option B is incorrect as a website redesign offers no such guarantee of leading to a drop in direct traffic.

Option C is incorrect as Google does not deindex websites just because they have been redesigned.

Option D is incorrect as a website redesign offers no such guarantee of not being competitive.

Question 13

The correct answer is: b: Horizontal navigation bar

The horizontal navigation bar usually appears right at the top of every page and includes an organised list of links to other pages.

Options A, C, and D are incorrect as these are unlikely to appear above the fold.

Question 14

The correct answer is: a: Is less visible than content above the fold.

Question 15

The correct answer is: b: False

This statement is false. There is no single above the fold content size for a website and it is not possible to define a single fold placement. This is because there are a wide variety of monitor sizes, screen resolutions, and sizes of mobile phones and tablets, so the exact location of the fold will constantly vary on different devices.
