A. Using the device as a Wi-Fi hotspot - When a cell phone is used as a Wi-Fi hotspot, it is constantly sending and receiving data and communicating with other devices, which can cause it to get hot. C. A failing battery - A failing battery can become hot and cause the cell phone to overheat. The battery may need to be replaced if it is no longer holding a charge or is swelling. H. Too many open applications - Having too many open applications can put a strain on the device's processor and cause it to get hot. The user should close any applications that are not being used to help reduce the heat generated by the device.

While having less than 15% free storage space on a phone (option D) can affect performance and cause the device to slow down, it is not typically a direct cause of the device overheating. The primary factors that lead to a phone getting hot are usually related to high power consumption and intensive processing tasks, such as: Using the device as a Wi-Fi hotspot (A): This requires continuous data transmission and reception, which can generate significant heat. A failing battery ©: A malfunctioning battery can overheat due to inefficiencies and potential internal damage. Too many open applications (H): Running multiple apps simultaneously can strain the processor and other components, leading to increased heat.

Can I ask why it wouldnt be Granting too many apps camera permission? Would it be because even though it has access its not actually using the camera because the apps arent open. I think I was thinking too much into it and thinking coz they had access they would use the camera maliciously which would make the phone hot. But also phones nowadays, even tho you have the apps open actually shadow close themselves if 3 or more apps are open and/or have not been used for a while. So they actually have to reopen themselves when clicked on. I picked A,C,G but I do think that H would be the better answer as it doesnt state anywhere in the question that G the apps that the camera would be using are malware or open in anyway
