Answer:

Biometrics in this sense refers to any human information that can be used as unique identifiers such as fingerprints, iris scan, facial scan, voice patterns and typing cadence.

The advantage of biometrics is that they can not be duplicated. That is, two people can never share the same biometric information except if they are clones of each other.  

Given that this kind of unique identifiers can be also be stored as data, it thus creates a cyber risk. If stolen, it may be used to access any part of the user's life. The loss of biometric data to hackers is so detrimental that it can be used to falsify legal documents, identifications documents, or other forms of and even credit card details.

Cheers!

"The ability to create methods with the same name that are in different classes" is known as ________.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Polymorphism

Explanation:

Polymorphism is the ability of an object to take multiple forms. It is an important concept of Object Oriented Programming. Polymorphism is used in Object Oriented Programming when a reference of a parent class is used to refer to a child class object. It allows to perform a single action in different ways. For example a person can possess different characteristics at the same time. A person can be a father, husband, employee or student. The same person can have different behaviors in different circumstances.

Example:

Suppose there is class Animal with a procedure sound(). This method can have different implementation for different animals. For this purpose lets take two derived classes Cow and Cat that extend the Animal class (parent/base class). Now the method sound() can be used in different ways for Cow and Cat.

public class Animal{

public void sound(){

System.out.println("Animal is making a sound");  } }

public class Cat extends Animal{

 public void sound(){

  System.out.println("Meow");     } }

The output is Meow. The same method sound() is used for cat subclass.

public class Cow extends Animal {

  public void sound(){

    cout<<"Mooo";  }}

The output is Mooo. The method sound() is used for a Cow subclass which returns the sound of Cow in output.

So the same function i.e. sound() behaves differently in different situations which shows Polymorphism.

Polymorphism has 2 types.

One is compile time polymorphism which is called overloading. In method overloading a class can have more than one functions with same name but different parameters. Methods can be overloaded by change in number or type arguments. For example overloading a function method() can take the following forms in which the name remains the same and parameters are different.

void method(int a)

void method(float a)

void method(float a, float b)

Second type is run time polymorphism which is called overriding. Method overriding is when a method declared in derived class is already present in base class. In this way derived/child class can give its own implementation to base/parent class method. Method present in base class is called overridden and that in subclass is called overriding method. The example of Animal Cow and Cat given above is an example of overriding.

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The "A" option is correct.

Explanation:

For CSS flexbox layout, the property "align-content" requires that the space in the flexbox is more than enough to show the items. In this case, to distribute evenly the items and show the first and last items aligned with the start and end of the main axis, the only suitable option is "space-between". This option leaves no space at the start or at the end of the flexbox, distributing the remaining space between the elements into the flexbox.
