What is one advantage of using Quick Mask?

• A. Select and edit only part of an image
• B. Apply a global filter to the entire image
• C. Increase file size significantly
• D. Convert to grayscale

Answer: (A)

Quick Mask lets you paint a mask directly onto the image to define the selection. Painting with white reveals areas you want selected and black conceals others, and that painted mask becomes a selection you can use to apply edits only to those parts. This painterly approach is especially helpful for complex edges and smooth feathering, giving precise, localized control without affecting the rest of the image. The other options aren’t about selective editing: applying a global filter affects everything, increasing file size isn’t a byproduct of Quick Mask, and converting to grayscale isn’t related to masking or selecting parts of the image.
