5) What are the characteristics of the following graphics file formats?
Bitmap: A pixel based image which is of low quality but are also easy to use and manipulate
GIF(Graphic Interchange Format): A form of computer image that moves as an animation, because it consists of frames, like a movie with no sound.
PNG(Portable Network Graphics): which is a bitmap image format that uses lossless data compression.
JPEG(Joint Photographic Experts Group): JPEG is a standardized image compression mechanism.
XCF: A GIMP image file format; It supports saving each layer, the current selection, channels, transparency, paths and guides
PSD(Particle Size Distribution): Image in layers supporting masks, color spaces, ICC profiles, transparency, text, alpha channels and spot colors, clipping paths and doutone settings.
SVG(Scalable Vector Graphics): XML-based language used to describe 2D vector-based graphics. The graphics are defined using mathematical expressions, allowing them to scale flawlessly.
