How do you apply an animation to an object in PowerPoint?

• A. Select the object -> Animations tab -> choose an animation and timing.
• B. Design tab -> Animation.
• C. Insert tab -> Animation.
• D. View tab -> Animation.

Answer: (C)

To apply an animation, start by selecting the object you want to animate. Then head to the Animations tab on the PowerPoint ribbon, where you can choose an animation style from the gallery and adjust timing details such as when it starts, how long it lasts, and any delay. For finer control, open the Animation Pane to reorder multiple effects and tweak options like triggers. The Preview button lets you see the result as you build it. The Insert tab is for adding new objects, the Design tab handles slide appearance, and the View tab changes how you view slides; the actual animation controls live on the Animations tab.
