Bitmap images are made of what?

• A. Pixels.
• B. Vectors.
• C. Bezier curves.
• D. Color profiles.

Answer: (A)

Bitmap images are built from a grid of tiny picture elements called pixels. Each pixel holds color information, and together they form the whole image. Enlarge a bitmap and the individual pixels become visible, which is why detail can degrade with scaling. This differs from vector graphics, which are defined by mathematical paths and can scale without losing sharpness. Bezier curves are a common way to describe those smooth paths in vector images, not what a bitmap is made of. Color profiles describe how colors are represented across devices, not the image’s pixel structure. So the key idea is that bitmap images are made of pixels.
