Which tool fills a confined area with color using a quick click?

• A. Gradient Tool
• B. Lasso Tool
• C. Magic Wand Tool
• D. Paint Bucket Tool

Answer: (D)

Filling a confined area with a solid color with a quick click is what the Paint Bucket tool is designed to do. When you click inside a closed region, it fills that area with the current foreground color, expanding to nearby pixels of similar color based on the tolerance setting. This makes it fast to color in large, uniform spaces without painting each pixel individually. The other tools serve different tasks: the Gradient Tool creates a color transition across an area rather than a single solid fill; the Lasso Tool is used to draw a selection around a region; and the Magic Wand Tool selects pixels by color similarity, which you would typically fill after making a selection.
