Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Creative works whose copyright restrictions have expired. The term may also be used for open source software.
A
public domain
B
intellectual property
C
end-user license agreement (EULA)
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Once that period of time expires, or if the creator failed to comply with any legal formalities required at the time of creation or thereafter, the work enters the public domain-meaning it belongs to everyone, without restriction.

Detailed explanation-2: -The term “public domain” refers to creative materials that are not protected by intellectual property laws such as copyright, trademark, or patent laws. The public owns these works, not an individual author or artist. Anyone can use a public domain work without obtaining permission, but no one can ever own it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Copyright does not protect ideas, concepts, systems, or methods of doing something. You may express your ideas in writing or drawings and claim copyright in your description, but be aware that copyright will not protect the idea itself as revealed in your written or artistic work.

Detailed explanation-4: -The period of copyright protection for a particular work is called its ‘copyright term’. After the end of its copyright term a work or other-subject matter enters the public domain and everyone is free to use it however they like. Determining if material is still protected can be difficult.
