What is the path that a specified object will follow in an animation?

• A. Numbered List
• B. Motion Path
• C. Fill Effect
• D. Gradient

Answer: (B)

Motion paths define the trajectory an object follows in an animation. They specify the route the object travels—straight, curved, or a custom shape—and the software interpolates its position along that path over time, often with timing and easing adjustments to control speed and acceleration. This focuses on movement itself, not appearance. The other options affect how something looks or is organized rather than how it moves: a fill effect changes interior color or pattern, a gradient creates color variation across a surface, and a numbered list is just a way to organize items. So the path an object follows in an animation is defined by the motion path.
