1. What is Taxonomy Modelling?
Question 1A. The practice of organising concepts into hierarchical categories, typically in parent-child structuresB. The practice of defining reasoning rules between conceptsC. The practice of designing physical database tablesD. The practice of drawing process workflowsE. The practice of capturing facts in natural language
2. What is the main goal of Taxonomy Modelling?
Question 2A. To enable machine reasoningB. To store transactions efficientlyC. To provide a clear and simple classification frameworkD. To define system integrationsE. To capture complex business rules
3. In the healthcare example of a taxonomy, which sequence correctly moves from general to specific?
Question 3A. COVID-19 → Viral Infections → Infectious Diseases → DiseasesB. Infectious Diseases → Diseases → COVID-19 → Viral InfectionsC. Diseases → Infectious Diseases → Viral Infections → COVID-19D. Viral Infections → Diseases → Infectious Diseases → COVID-19E. Diseases → COVID-19 → Viral Infections → Infectious Diseases
4. In the banking taxonomy example, how may Home Loans be further classified?
Question 4A. Secured or UnsecuredB. Approved or RejectedC. Short Term or Long TermD. Fixed Rate or Variable RateE. Domestic or Foreign
5. Which of the following is NOT one of the loan product categories named in the banking taxonomy example?
Question 5A. Personal LoansB. Home LoansC. Auto LoansD. SME LoansE. Student Loans
6. How does a taxonomy differ from an ontology?
Question 6A. A taxonomy defines reasoning rules; an ontology only classifiesB. They are identical in expressivenessC. A taxonomy is technology-specific; an ontology is notD. A taxonomy focuses only on classification and hierarchy, while an ontology also defines relationships, constraints and reasoning rulesE. An ontology is simpler and lighter than a taxonomy
7. Which analytical use is given as an example of taxonomies in reporting?
Question 7A. Comparing approval rates for secured versus unsecured loansB. Detecting fraud networks through shared addressesC. Inferring that a student is a personD. Tracing a rule back to its original sentenceE. Calculating server uptime

Question 9A. Metadata managementB. Retail cataloguesC. Digital librariesD. Content management systemsE. Fraud detection
10. Why does Taxonomy Modelling often serve as a starting point for more advanced knowledge frameworks?
Question 10A. Because it is required by lawB. Because it is simpler and lighter than ontology modelling, making it easier to maintain and applyC. Because it already includes reasoning rulesD. Because it is tied to a specific databaseE. Because it captures many-to-many relationships
