BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false ✓ Correct
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (C) Statement I is true but Statement II is false — Statement I is true and Statement II is false, so the answer is Statement I is true but Statement II is false.
Explanation
★Statement I is true and Statement II is false, so the answer is Statement I is true but Statement II is false.
★In binary the last digit carries the value of 1, the units place.
★So a binary number ending in 1 always has an odd decimal value, making statement I true.
★HTML is the HyperText Markup Language used to structure web pages.
★It is a markup language for documents shown in browsers, not a rule set for transferring files.
★File transfer across the Internet is governed by protocols such as FTP, not HTML.
★So statement II is false in describing HTML as a file-transfer rule set.
