Option D is just silly. An XML parser would never treat a CDATA section as a comment. That's like saying a dog can meow - it just doesn't make sense!

Hmm, I was a bit confused by the wording of option B. Can you really use different encodings within a CDATA section? Seems like it would just be a mess!

I agree with Alease. CDATA sections are great for including code snippets or other text that would normally need to be escaped in XML.

Option C is the correct answer. CDATA sections allow you to use special characters like '<' and '&' without needing to escape them.

I'm not sure, but I think A) is also correct because DTD declaration is needed for CDATA sections.
