I feel like I’ve seen this concept before, but I can't remember the exact definitions. I might go with B) False just to be safe.

This one is tricky! I thought a fault was a visible issue, while a latent defect is something you can’t see right away.

I recall a practice question that distinguished between defects and faults. I’m leaning towards B) False.

I think a latent defect is not the same as a fault, but I’m not entirely sure. I remember something about how defects can be hidden.
