Answer : 4. "all of the above"
Explanation :
A plotter is an output device that prints vector graphics on hard copy. Unlike printers, which are designed for raster graphics and text, plotters are specialized devices used to produce high-quality drawings, diagrams, and other vector-based illustrations. Plotters use pens or other drawing tools to create precise lines and shapes on paper, making them particularly useful for applications that require detailed and accurate graphical output, such as architectural and engineering designs.

Answer : 2. "in secondary storage"
Explanation :
The data remains the same after saving the file and turning off the computer when it is stored in secondary storage. Secondary storage devices, such as hard drives, solid-state drives, and optical discs, are non-volatile storage media. This means that they retain data even when the power is turned off. Unlike volatile memory (such as RAM), which loses its content when the computer is powered down, data stored in secondary storage remains intact until it is intentionally deleted or modified.
