Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Concept

An acronym represents a longer term through its initial letters. In computing, the surrounding domain determines which expansion is intended.

In web publishing, a content-management platform lets users create, organize, edit, and publish digital material through an interface.

Application

The initials C-M-S in this context expand to Content Management System. It names the class of software used to manage website content.

Contrast

  • Creative Management System refers to managing creative workflows; it is not the standard web-design expansion.

  • Content Mixing System describes mixing content, not the recognized web-publishing term.

  • Creatives Managerial System is not standard terminology for this software category.

Cross-check

The expansion and its domain meaning agree: a CMS manages content used on a website.
