Answer:
d. marketable bank-issued time deposit that specifies the interest rate earned and a fixed maturity date.
Explanation:
A bank certificate of deposit (CD) can be defined as a secured form of time-bound deposit and a special low-risk savings account, wherein money (lump-sum) are left with the bank for a specific period of time in exchange for an interest rate premium.
Generally, a certificate of deposit pays a higher interest rate to its holder than the regular savings account because the banks invest the money in a business.
Additionally, the bank certificate of deposit is protected and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) for up to $250,000.
A negotiable certificate of deposit (NCD) can be defined as a type of certificate of deposit (CD) that has a minimum face (par) value of $100,000 and can't be redeemed before its maturity date i.e it doesn't allow the holder to withdraw money until the pre-determined date.
This ultimately implies that, a negotiable certificate of deposit (NCD) is a marketable bank-issued time deposit that specifies the interest rate earned (interest-bearing time deposits) and a fixed maturity date.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Technology is defined by how people use scientific knowledge, and not only does scientific knowledge constantly change, but the way we use it is also constantly changing. 
Emerging technologies refers to a new technology or technological innovations. The problem is that what can be considered new and how fast will it become obsolete? Our world is changing so fast, that current technology will be obsolete in just a few months, or maybe a year from now. 
Because new technologies become old too fast, it is very difficult to identify them before they are no longer an innovation. Only those technologies that become mainstream can be clearly identified as emerging technologies, e.g. the iPhone was considered an emerging technology in 2007 and even though the first iPhone is obsolete now, it became mainstream technology.
