WGU C962 INTE 5200 Current & Emerging Technology Final Assessment (Qns & Ans) 2026

1. Which technology is primarily used to enable smart contracts
in blockchain systems?
 - A) Java
 - B) Solidity
 - C) C++
 - D) Python
 Correct ANS: B) Solidity
 Rationale: Solidity is a programming language designed
specifically for writing smart contracts on Ethereum and other
blockchain platforms.
2. What is the primary purpose of edge computing?
 - A) To centralize data processing
 - B) To reduce latency
 - C) To enhance data storage
 - D) To improve bandwidth
 Correct ANS: B) To reduce latency
 Rationale: Edge computing processes data closer to its source,
which reduces latency and improves response times for real-time
applications.
3. Which of the following protocols is primarily used for secure
data transmission over networks?
 - A) HTTP
 - B) FTP
 - C) HTTPS
 - D) SMTP
 Correct ANS: C) HTTPS
 Rationale: HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is used
for secure communication over a computer network, combining
HTTP with SSL/TLS protocols.
4. In the context of artificial intelligence, what does the term
"natural language processing" refer to?
 - A) Processing large sets of numerical data
 - B) Understanding and generating human language
 - C) Designing hardware that mimics human thought
 - D) Encrypting data for secure communication
 Correct ANS: B) Understanding and generating human
language
 Rationale: Natural Language Processing (NLP) involves
making it possible for machines to understand and generate
human language naturally.
