I’m leaning towards the session ending option, but I might be mixing it up with local storage.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know cookies can have different lifespans, but I'm not sure if they'd really last forever without an expiration date. I'll have to make an educated guess on this.

Ah, I remember learning about this in class. Cookies without an expiration date are typically set to expire when the browser session ends, so I'll select option B.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I know cookies can persist for a while, but I'm not certain if they last forever without an expiration date. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Cookies should never last forever, that's just a recipe for disaster! Might as well put a lifetime warranty on a carton of milk.
