I think the key
word in answer D is *must*.
You can, but you don't have to, thus the statement isn't true.
Thinking some more on it, I don't see why a static variable would be serialized anyway. The only thing that you would 'save' during serialization would be the instance variables.
Either way, D is not correct.
