Which are examples of copyright?

• A. Literary, scientific works, and artistic works
• B. Patents for inventions
• C. Trademarks
• D. Industrial designs

Answer: (A)

Copyright protects original works of authorship fixed in a tangible form, such as how ideas are expressed in writing, art, or other creative formats. The category that includes literary, scientific, and artistic works fits this protection, because novels, articles, essays, scientific papers, paintings, and similar expressions are original creations once fixed in a medium. Copyright covers the expression, not the ideas or facts themselves, and it applies to the tangible form in which those expressions are recorded or presented. Patents protect inventions, trademarks protect brand identifiers, and industrial designs protect the visual appearance of products, but they are separate forms of intellectual property, not copyright.
