Which statement about cloud computing is most accurate?

• A. It stores all data only on the user's device.
• B. It requires no internet connection to access resources.
• C. It uses a single fixed storage location for all users.
• D. It delivers computing resources over the internet, offering access from anywhere and scalable storage.

Answer: (D)

Cloud computing means you access computing resources—such as storage, applications, and processing power—over the internet rather than keeping everything on your own device. This setup lets you reach resources from anywhere and scale how much storage or compute you use as needed. That’s why the statement describing delivering computing resources over the internet, with access from anywhere and scalable storage, is the most accurate. The other ideas don’t fit because storing everything on your device isn’t cloud-based, requiring no internet ignores the need to access online resources, and insisting on a single fixed storage location contradicts the scalable, distributed nature of cloud storage.
