Which statement best describes the Sprite Mode values in Unity's 2D import settings as used for slicing and animation?

• A. Single and Multiple
• B. Single only
• C. Multiple only
• D. Sprite and Texture

Answer: (A)

Sprite Mode controls how Unity interprets a texture as sprites. There are two valid options: Single and Multiple. Single treats the entire texture as one sprite, which is what you use when you have a single image you want to display. Multiple is used when the texture contains several frames or images—like a sprite sheet—and lets you slice it into separate sprites using the Sprite Editor. This slicing is what enables animation, since each slice can be a separate frame in an animation clip. For slicing and animation, Multiple is the needed mode, and when you only have one image you’d use Single. The combination of both values is why “Single and Multiple” is the correct description. Other choices don’t reflect the actual options available in Sprite Mode.
