A digital format for storing sound data, often used in hypermedia to provide auditory information.

• A. Audio File
• B. Domain
• C. Broadband
• D. Abstract

Answer: (A)

This item tests understanding of digital sound storage used in multimedia. An audio file is the digital container that stores encoded sound data (such as MP3, WAV, or AAC) so it can be played back within hypermedia to provide auditory information. The other terms don’t describe a format for storing sound: a domain is a field or area, broadband refers to internet speed, and abstract denotes something not concrete. In hypermedia, audio files enrich content with narration, music, or sound effects.
