Mumbai University/BE IT/User Interaction Design/Design Rules and Standards/Multiple Choice Questions - Part 4

Hello Everyone!
This article is based on the common Multiple Choice Questions related to User Interface Design. The MCQs are based on the topic- Design rules and standards

From the University Exam point of view, these MCQs were given as question bank in the 2020 Mumbai University-BE-Information Technology Exam for the subject- User Interface Design. The MCQs set is prepared from taking different cluster data.
