Wait, can you really destroy an account like that? Sounds risky!

C is misleading, they're not opcodes like contracts.

I practiced a similar question about ether transfers and selfdestruct, and I feel like A could be misleading in some cases.

I vaguely recall something about opcodes, but I don't think externally owned accounts are the same as smart contracts like option C suggests.

I remember studying that externally owned accounts are tied to private keys, so option B seems correct to me.

I think option A sounds familiar, but I'm not entirely sure if selfdestruct really sends ether regardless of the fallback function.

Wait, I'm a bit confused. Aren't externally owned accounts the ones that can be destroyed using the selfdestruct keyword? I'm not sure if option A or B is correct. I'll have to review the material again before deciding.

Okay, let me break this down. Externally owned accounts are associated with private keys, not smart contract logic. So option B seems to be the right answer here. I'll double-check my understanding, but I think I've got this.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not sure if I fully understand the difference between externally owned accounts and smart contracts. I'll have to think this through carefully before answering.

I'm pretty confident about this one. The key is understanding that externally owned accounts are controlled by private keys, not smart contracts. So option B is the correct answer.

Sending all your ether to a random address? That's a bold move, Cotton. Let's stick with option B, shall we?

C is just plain wrong. Externally Owned Accounts are not logical opcodes, they're the basic building blocks of the Ethereum network.

Option B is the correct answer. Externally Owned Accounts are bound to a private key, which is necessary to sign transactions going out of that account.
