Selected Answer: D
The correct answer is D. Yes, Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes do persist independently from the running life of an Amazon EC2 instance if the "Delete on Termination" flag is unset. This means that even if the EC2 instance is stopped or terminated, the EBS volumes will remain and can be reattached to another instance.
