Q1Consider the following statements about the Animation Pane in MS PowerPoint. Statement 1: It shows the animations applied to objects on the selected slide. Statement 2: It can be used to change the order in which those animations play. Which of the following is correct?
The Animation Pane is used when more control is needed over object animations on a slide. It lists the animation effects applied to objects such as text boxes, pictures and shapes. From this pane, the user can inspect the sequence and move effects up or down to change their playing order. The stem asks about these two functions, and both are standard PowerPoint behaviour. Therefore, both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct.
Q2Consider the following statements about starting a slide show in MS PowerPoint. Statement I: Pressing F5 starts the slide show from the beginning. Statement II: Pressing Shift+F5 starts the slide show from the current slide. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Both statements are correct. In PowerPoint, F5 is the standard shortcut to start the slide show from the first slide. Shift+F5 is used when you want to begin presenting from the slide currently selected or open. The stem asks specifically about starting a slide show, not editing slides or switching applications. Therefore, Statement I and Statement II both describe correct, stable shortcut behaviour used across mainstream PowerPoint versions.
Q3Match the PowerPoint slide-show controls with their usual function. List I: I. F5 II. Shift+F5 III. Esc IV. Spacebar List II: 1. Starts the slide show from the beginning 2. Starts the slide show from the current slide 3. Ends the running slide show 4. Moves to the next slide or next effect
PowerPoint has stable slide-show shortcuts that are often tested in basic computer exams. F5 starts the slide show from the beginning, while Shift+F5 starts it from the slide currently selected. Esc is used to end an active slide show and return to the editing window. During a running show, Spacebar advances to the next slide or the next animation/transition step. Matching these functions gives I-1, II-2, III-3 and IV-4, so option A is correct.
Q4Which keyboard shortcut starts a PowerPoint slide show from the first slide?
PowerPoint has two very common slide-show shortcuts. F5 starts the presentation from the beginning, so it is used when the show must run from the first slide. Shift+F5 starts from the currently selected slide, which is useful during editing or practice. The stem specifically asks for starting from the first slide, so F5 is the defensible answer. Ctrl+S and Ctrl+P are general Office shortcuts for save and print.
Q5In MS PowerPoint, which statement correctly distinguishes a transition from an animation?
The clue is the movement from one slide to another. In PowerPoint, a transition is a slide-level effect that appears during a change from the current slide to the next or previous slide. Animations are different: they are applied to objects placed on a slide, such as a heading, bullet list, picture, chart or shape. Therefore, the statement that links transitions with slide-to-slide movement gives the correct distinction.

6Statement 1: Animation Pane in MS PowerPoint helps arrange and manage multiple animation effects on a slide. Statement 2: Reordering items in the Animation Pane can change the sequence in which animated objects appear during the slide show. Which option is correct?
7Match List I with List II in the context of animations and slide shows in MS PowerPoint. List I: I. Animation Pane II. Rehearse Timings III. Slide Sorter view IV. From Beginning List II: 1. Starts the show from the first slide 2. Records practice timings for slides 3. Displays and changes animation order 4. Shows slide thumbnails for arranging slides Select the correct answer.
8Read the Assertion and Reason about PowerPoint slide shows. Assertion (A): A PowerPoint slide show can be made to advance slides automatically after set timings. Reason (R): Rehearse Timings can record the time spent on each slide during a practice run. Choose the correct answer.
9In MS PowerPoint, which feature controls the visual effect that appears when one slide changes to the next during a slide show?
10Assertion (A): Rehearse Timings in MS PowerPoint can record the time spent on each slide during a practice run. Reason (R): Recorded timings can later be used to run the slide show automatically without manually advancing every slide. Choose the correct option.
11Which of the following statements about transitions and animations in MS PowerPoint is incorrect?
12Match List I with List II for common PowerPoint features. List I: I. Transition II. Animation III. Slide Sorter view IV. Rehearse Timings List II: 1. Applies an effect to an object on a slide 2. Controls the effect between two slides 3. Shows many slide thumbnails for rearranging slides 4. Practises and records slide timings Choose the correct answer.
13Read the Assertion (A) and Reason (R) about slide advancement in MS PowerPoint. Assertion (A): A presenter can make slides advance automatically after a fixed time interval. Reason (R): In the transition settings, the slide can be advanced after a specified time instead of only on a mouse click. Choose the correct option.
