Explanation / Answer

when you will type http://www.amazon.com/ it will redirect you to https://www.amazon.com/ automatically.

Is this presently a secured site: yes

How do you know: By looking at the URL of the website. If it begins with “https” instead of “http” it means the site is secured using an SSL Certificate (the s stands for secure). SSL certificate secures all the data that goes from website to the server. To get an SSL certificate one has to go through a validation process.

5th part: Just check the URL in the browser if it is https then yes it is secured if it is http then it is not secured.Reason is same as mentioned above.
