A
Incremental
B
Full
C
Fragmented
D
Differential
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -As shown above, performing a full backup daily requires the most amount of space, and will also take the most amount of time. However, more total copies of data are available, and fewer pieces of media are required to perform a restore operation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Differential backups are quicker than full backups because so much less data is backed up. But the amount of data being backed up grows with each differential backup until the next full backup.

Detailed explanation-3: -Full backup: The most basic and comprehensive backup method, where all data is sent to another location. Incremental backup: Backs up all files that have changed since the last backup occurred. Differential backup: Backs up only copies of all files that have changed since the last full backup. 30-Jan-2023
