yes we can short
both combinational and sequential circuits have two inputs and outputs..!
if the two level gates degenerate into a single logic operation. But, under non-degenerate forms, NAND-NAND & NOR-NOR are listed. Their explanation seems to be self-contradictory.
NAND gates are universal gates and can be used to construct any of the logic gates (AND, OR, NOT, NOR, XOR, XNOR). The easiest way to figure this out is to use basic Boolean Laws. For instance, to create a NOT gate (A'), tie one of the NAND gate's input to logic high: (A+1)' = A'. To create an AND gate (AxB), use two NANDs in series, with the second one configured as an inverter: (AxB) = ((AxB)')'
Use two NOR gates. Tie the output of the first to both (or all) inputs of the second. A logic one at any input of the first produces a logic one at the output of the second which is a standard OR.
Three 2-input XOR gates and one 3-input NOR gate will do the work. Connect each output of each XOR gate to one input of the 3-input NOR gate and apply the two 3-bit words to the inputs of the XOR gates. If X (X2X1X0) and Y(Y2Y1Y0) are two 3-bit words, X2 and Y2 will connect to one XOR gate, X1 and Y1 to the next XOR gate and X0 and Y0 to the last XOR gate. You could see the result of the operation on a LED connected to the output of the NOR gate. Other implementations are also possible of course. The solution above is absolutely correct, but includes a 3 input gate. If the task is to use only two input gates, then a small change will be needed. Take the outputs from any two XOR gates into a 2 input OR gate. Then take the output of the OR gate and the output of the third XOR gate into a 2 input NOR gate. The operation remains identical to the first solution but adheres to the brief of using gates with 2 inputs. In the real world, there is probably no reason to impose such a limitation on a design so the first solution would normally be the preferred route to take.
A "Nand" gate is an "And" gate with an "Inverter" added to its output. To get a logic 1 output from a "Nand" gate, you need a logic 0 on both of its inputs. If I understand your question correctly, you have three "Nand" gates. Presumably the outputs of two of them are connected to the inputs of the third. Logic 1 at both inputs of the first two "Nand" gates will produce a logic 0 output from both of them. The two logic 0's are fed to the inputs of the third "Nand" gate producing a logic 0 output from the third "Nand" gate.
universal logic gate is a gate using which you can make all the logic gates there are two such gates NOR gate and NAND gate
The two categories for logic gates are basic logic gates and universal gates. Gates are identified by their function and universal gates are identified as NAND gate or NOR gate.
AOI logic, which uses AND, OR,and INVERTER(NOT) gates NAND/NOR Logic, this uses only NAND or NOR gates respectively.
Any logic gate from which all other logic gate functions can be derived. The two universal gates are NAND and NOR.

A: two

more logic gates are used instead
Electronic logic uses just two states, high and low voltage, or "1" and "0". The output of a gate will always be at one value or the other. This is convenient when only a single output is used to drive a signal. In some cases, it is useful to have two or more outputs driving the same signal line. However, if two outputs are linked together, if they have different outputs, there is likely to be damage to the outputs and the level on the line will be un-predictable. A tri-state output has the same high and low levels as standard logic outputs but it has a third state, namely high impedance. A high impedance state means that the output is not transferred to the line so effectively, the output is simply turned off. Another logic gate can now drive the line and the level is entirely predictable. Numerous outputs can now drive a single line as long as only on is turned on at any time.
