Which benefit can a city gain from the Cisco internet of Things?

Question

Options

• ALower poverty rates of citizens
• BMore community-focused events
• CMinimized effects of global warning
• DShortened time for EMS response.

• A
  2% (1)
• C
  4% (2)
• D
  94% (44)

Explanation

Cisco's Internet of Things (IoT) enables smart city infrastructure by connecting sensors, cameras, and communication systems - allowing Emergency Medical Services to receive real-time traffic data, optimized routing, and instant incident alerts that directly shorten response times (D). Options A and B (poverty reduction and community events) are social/policy outcomes that technology infrastructure does not directly produce on its own. Option C (global warming) is an environmental concern that IoT can marginally assist with through energy efficiency, but it is not a primary or direct city-level benefit Cisco IoT is associated with in networking curricula. Memory tip: Think "IoT = connected sensors = faster data = faster decisions" - the most concrete, measurable city benefit is speed of emergency response, making D the only operationally direct outcome among the choices.
