Answer

Suggested Answer

Question 5 of 831
You are working on a thesis for your doctorate degree in Computer Science. Your thesis is based on HTML, DHTML, and other web-based languages and how they have evolved over the years.
You navigate to archive. org and view the HTML code of news.com. You then navigate to the current news.com website and copy over the source code. While searching through the code, you come across something abnormal: What have you found?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is A.

Given the context of navigating to archive.org and then to the current news.com website, it is likely that the abnormality found in the code is something typically associated with web tracking or analytics. A web bug, also known as a web beacon, is a common element in web pages used for tracking and analytics purposes. It usually refers to a small, often invisible image that can collect information about the user viewing the page. This makes 'web bug' the most plausible abnormality you would find in such a scenario.
