    What protects the intellectual property created by artists?

    • Patents

    • Copyrights

    • Trademarks

    • Registered designs

    Correct Answer
    A. Copyrights
    Explanation
    Copyrights protect the intellectual property created by artists. This legal right grants artists exclusive control over the use and distribution of their creative works, such as music, literature, art, and films. It prevents others from copying, reproducing, or distributing the work without permission, ensuring that artists can profit from their creations and have the right to decide how they are used. Patents protect inventions, trademarks protect brands, and registered designs protect the visual appearance of products, but copyrights specifically safeguard artistic creations.

Therefore, all of the options mentioned are legally permissible actions for the owner of the property.

    In most countries, how long does copyright last?

    • Around 10 years after the creation of the work

    • Around 50 years after the creation of the work

    • Around 10 years after the death of the person who created that work

    • Around 50 years after the death of the person who created that work

    Correct Answer
    A. Around 50 years after the death of the person who created that work
    Explanation
    Copyright typically lasts around 50 years after the death of the person who created the work. This means that the creator's rights to their work are protected for a significant period of time, allowing them or their estate to benefit from their creations. After this time period, the work usually enters the public domain, meaning it can be freely used and distributed by anyone without permission or payment. This duration is designed to balance the interests of creators in benefiting from their work and the public's interest in accessing and building upon creative works.

    How long do patents usually last?

    • 10 years

    • 20 years

    • 30 years

    • 40 years

    Correct Answer
    A. 20 years
    Explanation
    Patents usually last for 20 years. This duration provides the patent holder with exclusive rights to their invention, preventing others from making, using, or selling the patented product or process without permission. After the patent expires, the invention enters the public domain, allowing anyone to use or reproduce it freely. The 20-year term is considered a balance between providing inventors with adequate protection and encouraging innovation by eventually making the invention available for public use.

    Which option is correct for the forms of protection for intellectual property?

    • Patents

    • Copyrights

    • Both a & b

    • None 

    Correct Answer
    A. Both a & b
    Explanation
    Both patents and copyrights are forms of protection for intellectual property. Patents protect inventions and give the inventor exclusive rights to make, use, and sell their invention for a limited period of time. Copyrights, on the other hand, protect original works of authorship such as books, music, and artwork, giving the creator exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, and display their work. Therefore, the correct answer is "Both a & b" as both patents and copyrights are valid forms of protection for intellectual property.

    • Registered designs

    • Copyrights

    • Geographical indications

    A. Registered designs
    Explanation
    Registered designs protect the intellectual property created by designers. This means that any unique and original designs, such as logos, patterns, or product shapes, are legally protected from being copied or used without permission. By registering their designs, designers have exclusive rights to their creations, preventing others from using or reproducing them without authorization. This helps designers maintain control over their work and ensures that they can benefit from their creativity and innovation.
