Provisioning processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources means the consumer of those resources does not manage or control the underlying cloud physical infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components.
Answer: D. 75) According to the expectations theory of the term structure. A) when the yield curve is steeply upward sloping, short-term interest rates are expected to rise in the future. B) when the yield curve is downward sloping, short-term interest rates are expected to remain relatively stable in the future.
Typically, short-term interest rates are lower than long-term rates, so the yield curve slopes upwards, reflecting higher yields for longer-term investments. This is referred to as a normal yield curve. When the spread between short-term and long-term interest rates narrows, the yield curve begins to flatten. A flat yield curve is often seen during the transition from a normal yield curve to an inverted one.
