Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The gesture to display a shortcut menu on a tablet is generally done by pressing and holding down on the item you want the menu for. This holds true for most tablets regardless of their brand or operating system. Tapping typically selects an item, pinching zooms in or out on the screen, and swiping navigates between screens or items. Therefore C) press and hold is the best choice.
