Answer:

The answer is "Option C".

Step-by-step explanation:

The contents of a cluster are some content internally linked from and to the pillar of the cluster. Its glue binds your clusters linked externally connects. It is because cluster 5 stores a directory entry, and cluster 7 is the very first cluster, cluster 9, and cluster 8, and cluster 8 was its third cluster. This will therefore be affected.
