• Chose B1

  B - refresh only check desired and actual state

• Chose B2

  When running terraform refresh, Terraform updates the state file by querying the cloud provider using the appropriate credentials to check the actual state of the infrastructure. However, the configuration file (the .tf files) is not processed during a refresh. Terraform is only concerned with updating the state to match the real-world infrastructure, not applying changes from the configuration.

• Chose B1

  Refresh command updates the state file but not the terraform configuration file
