Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -GIF stands for “Graphics Interchange Format”. It’s a bitmap image format which was created by CompuServe in 1987. This popular image format has a wide support base on the internet. GIF files are portable across various platforms and applications.

Detailed explanation-2: -MP4 works well for videos posted on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. MOV (QuickTime Movie) stores high-quality video, audio, and effects, but these files tend to be quite large. Developed for QuickTime Player by Apple, MOV files use MPEG-4 encoding to play in QuickTime for Windows.

Detailed explanation-3: -Small file size-GIFs provide a relatively small file size compared to other image formats. They can be downloaded faster without sacrificing quality, and are especially suitable for environments with limited bandwidth and computing resources.
