Hold up, the JRE does garbage collection? I thought that was a job for the JVM. This question is getting weirder by the minute.

I'm going with B and D. The JRE is all about running Java code, not compiling it. E is a red herring for sure.

No, that's actually the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). The JRE is just for running Java programs.

E is just silly. You need the JDK to compile .java files, not the JRE. This question is trying to trick us!

C is also true. The JRE contains the JDK and all the Java APIs, so you don't need to install them separately.
