A printer that burns the print image onto the photosensitive drum is called

dot matrix printer

daisy wheel printer

laser printer

thermal printer

Answer Details

A printer that burns the print image onto the photosensitive drum is called a laser printer. The laser printer uses a laser beam to draw the text or image onto the drum, which has a coating of photosensitive material. The laser beam selectively removes the charge on the drum surface, creating an electrostatic image of the printout. Then, toner particles are attracted to the charged areas on the drum, which are then transferred onto paper and fused by heat to create the final printout. This process is called electrophotography, and it allows for high-quality, fast, and efficient printing. Laser printers are commonly used in offices, schools, and homes for printing documents, reports, and images.

In an organization, civic consideration arises from?

the profit derived from the enviroment

its operations witthin the environment

irs social negative impacts on the community

the fact that it is registered in that locality

Answer Details

Civic consideration in an organization arises from its operations within the environment and its social impacts on the community. Civic consideration refers to the ethical responsibility of an organization towards the welfare of the community in which it operates. It involves taking into account the social and environmental impacts of the organization's operations and making decisions that benefit both the organization and the community. Therefore, while being registered in a locality is important for the legal status of the organization, it does not necessarily dictate its civic consideration. Additionally, profit derived from the environment is not enough to guarantee civic consideration as it does not necessarily take into account the social impacts of the organization's operations.

A form of money that has gone out of use is?

paper money

bank money

commodity money

foreign money

Answer Details

A form of money that has gone out of use is "commodity money". This type of money was based on the value of a commodity, such as gold, silver, or salt, and was widely used in the past. The actual commodity was used as currency and had value in and of itself. For example, gold coins were used as a form of payment and the value of the coins was determined by the amount of gold they contained. However, as economies evolved and grew, commodity money became impractical due to issues such as security and portability. As a result, paper money and bank money, which are more convenient and easier to use, gradually replaced commodity money as the primary forms of currency.

Collateral security is an asset or property that is pledged by the borrower to secure the loan. This provides the lender with some assurance that they will be able to recover the loan amount in case the borrower is unable to repay the loan. Collateral can include things like property, stocks, or other assets that have value. When a borrower applies for a loan from a cooperative society, they are required to provide collateral security that is worth at least the amount of the loan. The collateral is evaluated by the society to determine its value and the borrower's ability to repay the loan. Therefore, collateral security is a major condition for obtaining a loan in cooperative societies, and it provides assurance to the lender that the loan will be repaid even if the borrower defaults.
