Not sure about D, seems like overkill for just lat/long.

Wait, can you really create a custom geolocation field?

I think B would work too, but C is more efficient.

Option D seems a bit off to me; I don't think recommending app exchange packages is the right answer for maintaining location data directly.

I think we practiced a similar question, and I recall that using formula fields isn't the best approach for this kind of requirement.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like creating custom fields for latitude and longitude could work too, like in option B.

I remember we discussed geolocation fields in class, and I think option C sounds right since it specifically mentions a geolocation custom field.

I remember discussing DevOps in class, so I think I've got a good handle on this. Culture, practices, and mindset are the way to go.

I'm not sure about this one. The concept of transaction validation on DAG-based DLTs is a bit confusing to me.

I'm a little confused on this. I know smoking has all sorts of negative health effects, but I can't quite recall which vitamin it specifically depletes. I'll have to make an educated guess here.
