Its very important to complete this task . its help me to prove myself that i can understand every security system about steem.I came to know about it very easily.
Achievement 2, is one of the most important level in steem that a newcomer must endeavour to participate in. One has to understand what are functions of the keys and what they are for and be very careful with each of them.

Yes, I have.
Q2. DO YOU KNOW EACH OF THESE KEY FUNCTION AND RESTRICTIONS?
Yes I do ... Below are the functions of different keys
Posting key - The posting key is for everyday logins. It is used for all the social activities on Steemit; posting, commenting on posts, edits, voting, resteeming, to follow mute other accounts.
Active key - The active key is meant for more sensitive tasks such as transferring funds, power up and down transactions, converting Steem Dollars, voting for witnesses, updating profile details.
Master key - The master key is only meant for use when necessary. It is the most powerful key because it can change any key of an account, including the owner key. It is advisable to always save the keys in a safe place, and used only when necessary.
Memo key - This key is used for encrypting and decrypting memos when transferring funds. In order to encrypt a memo, use the pound/# sign before it.
