Answer 2

A hard link is a term denoting when two files partition point to the same inode structure.

• In the directory-based filesystem hard link is used as an entry.
• Each file has its own hard link.
• If a file has a hard link it means that it remains the same even if the name of the file changes.
• But when using a soft link whenever a file name change it will also reflect in the soft link.
• Here option(B) hard link is the correct answer.
