The small squares and circles around a selected graphic are called ____ handles.

A) sizing
B) shape
C) base
D) dimension

The small squares and circles around a selected graphic are commonly referred to as "sizing handles" because they allow the user to adjust the size of the graphic. "Shape handles" would be a possible option if the question specifically referred to graphic shapes such as rectangles or circles. "Base handles" and "dimension handles" are not commonly used terms in graphic design.
