What is used to create a vector image?

Pixels Paths Layers Filters

Correct Answer:

Paths

Explanation:

Paths are the building blocks of vector images. A vector graphic describes shapes with mathematical paths—lines and curves defined by anchor points and handles—so the artwork can be scaled up or down without losing sharpness. Tools like the Pen or Shape tools create and edit these paths, letting you fill or stroke the shapes precisely. Pixels, by contrast, are the tiny squares that makeup raster images, which can become jagged or blurred when enlarged. Layers are just a way to organize content, not the mechanism that creates vector geometry, and filters are effects applied to existing content rather than the method used to define scalable shapes.
