Final answer:

In a translation, pairs of corresponding points do lie on concentric circles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is A) True. In a translation, when a figure is moved without rotation or reflection, the pairs of corresponding points before and after the translation lie on congruent circles (circles with the same radius) centered at the same point. Since concentric circles are circles with the same center, and congruent circles have the same center, it is true that pairs of corresponding points lie on concentric circles in a translation.
