Correct!
Wrong!
The autopilot computation is mainly within servos. There are limiters in the acceleration, rate and attitude computation in order to avoid unsafe conditions caused by a wrong parameter consumed by the autopilot, or any computation error that would cause a wrong command.

Ventral Rudder Control (VRC) is a Stability Augmentation System (SAS) that improves airplane dynamic by commanding the Ventral Rudder surface to damp lateral directional oscillations (dutch roll) when Yaw Damper is ____
Correct!
Wrong!
Emergency Descent Mode (EDM) - The Emergency Descent Mode (EDM) is available for airplanes with G3000 system version 3305.00 and on. EDM is automatically activated when the CAB ALTITUDE HI warning CAS message is displayed on the CAS window. When EDM is activated:
Correct!
Wrong!
The Emergency Descent Mode (EDM) is available for airplanes with G3000 system version 3305.00 and on. When EDM is deactivated, the transponder resets to the previous code or to the code manually selected with EDM activated.
Correct!
Wrong!
Rotating the thumb wheel selector will make the VS mode to automatically become effective (unless the APR being already active).
Correct!
Wrong!
The VS mode must be active for the thumb wheel selector to become effective.
Emergency Descent Mode (EDM) - The Emergency Descent Mode (EDM) is available for airplanes with G3000 system version 3305.00 and on. When the EDM is automatically activated the Airspeed Reference is set to _____, and the Flight Level Change (FLC) and Heading Select (HDG) modes are subsequently activated to initiate a descent.

Wrong!
The Flight Level Change (FLC) is the default mode for VNAV climbs. This mode acquires and maintains the FMS speed target (in IAS or Mach) while climbing to the selected altitude. After leveling off at the VNAV Target Altitude, FLC mode is armed to resume the climb when the VNAV waypoint is sequenced.
