Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
An ASP.NET HTTP handler is the process that runs in response to a request that is made to an ASP.NET Web application.
ASP.NET maps HTTP requests to HTTP handlers based on a file name extension.
Incorrect:
Not B: HTTP modules differ from HTTP handlers. An HTTP handler returns a response to a request that is identified by a file name extension or family of file name extensions. In contrast, an HTTP module is invoked for all requests and responses. It subscribes to event notifications in the request pipeline and lets you run code in registered event handlers.
