Which of the following statements about e-mail is true?

Correct answer: B

A
An e-mail cannot contain both pdf and zip files
B
CC field can be empty in an email
Correct
C
E-mail cannot have more than 5 attachments
D

Explanation and memory cue

The CC (Carbon Copy) field in an email is optional and can be left empty if you do not want to send a copy to additional recipients. The To field is generally required to specify the main recipient(s), but some email clients allow sending emails with an empty To field if recipients are specified in CC or BCC, though this is not standard practice. There is no strict limit on the number of attachments or types of files (such as pdf or zip) that can be attached to an email, except for size limits imposed by email providers (typically around 20-25 MB total). Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect, and B is the true statement.
