a conditional statement that tells a program to do something only if the answer to the expression is true

a conditional statement that executes a piece of code when one statement is false

a conditional statement that executes a piece of code whenever an If appears

An if statement checks a condition and runs its associated code only when that condition is true. Choice B describes this behavior. Choice A refers more broadly to a conditional structure with branches for both true and false results.
