QUESTION 3

1. Which of the following statements are true? (Mark all that apply.)

   	a.	MyArrayList is implemented using an array. The array is dynamically created. If the capacity of the array is exceeded, create a new larger array and copy all the elements from the current array to the new array.
   	b.	MyLinkedList is also implemented using an array structure.
   	c.	A linked structure consists of nodes. Each node is dynamically created to hold an element. All the nodes are linked together to form a list.
   	d.	MyArrayList and MyLinkedList are two concrete implementations of MyList.

   	b.	size indicates the number of elements in the list.
   	c.	size is reduced by 1 if an element is deleted from the list.
