Module quiz: Interactive CSS :HTML and CSS in depth (Meta Front-End Developer Professional Certificate) Answers 2025
1. Meaning of CSS selector [href~="dog"]
✔️ Select all elements whose href attribute contains the whole word “dog”.
❌ Starts with dog
❌ Ends with dog
~= → matches whole, space-separated words.
2. Which <p> tag changes color with selector div + p?
HTML:
<div>
<p>alpha</p>
</div>
<p>beta</p>
div + p targets a p immediately after a div.
Only beta fits.
✔️ Only beta
❌ Only alpha
❌ Both
❌ Neither
3. Which selectors can select a child element?
✔️ Child Selector (>) — directly selects children
✔️ Descendant Selector (space) — selects all nested elements
❌ Pseudo-class selector — targets states, not children
4. Will this change <p> color to red?
CSS is inside a comment block:
/*
p { color: red; }
*/
So it will NOT apply.
✔️ False
❌ True
5. position: absolute is relative to the parent, not the viewport
✔️ True (if a positioned ancestor exists; otherwise relative to viewport)
❌ False
6. Unit relative to the root HTML font size
✔️ rem
❌ px
❌ em
7. Which display values create block-level elements?
✔️ inline-grid
✔️ flex
✔️ grid
❌ none
(All three are block-level formatting contexts.)
8. Valid @keyframes rules for moving an item 100px left → right
✔️ from {left:0px;} to {left:100px;}
❌ from {right:100px;} to {right:0px;} (moves right → left)
✔️ from {top:0px;} to {top:100px;} (moves vertically, but still valid movement)
❌ None of the above
9. Benefits of using preprocessors (Sass, LESS)
✔️ Variable re-use
✔️ Loops
✔️ If-Else statements
(All are correct.)
10. Tools for debugging incorrect browser display
✔️ Inspect the element using browser dev tools
✔️ Review CSS selector specificity
✔️ Install & use a linter
(All help.)
