B. read bytes one at a time, in order

C. read/write sequentially by record

D. read/write randomly by record

B. read bytes one at a time, in order the following explains the sequential file access method.

Explanation:

• A sequential access is one in which the records are accessed in a specific order, that is, the information in the file is processed one record at a time. This is the most basic mode of access.
• It is the simplest method of access. The data in the file is processed in the order that it appears in the file, one entry after the other. This is by far the most common mode of access; editors and compilers, for example, routinely use it.
• Read and write activities make up the majority of a file's activity. A read action -read next- reads the file's next position and advances a file pointer, which keeps track of the I/O location.
