Selected Answer: E
E. 3 42 Explanation: p1 = 1 just reassigns the local copy of p1. It does not affect the original variable. p2[0] = 42 modifies the list in-place, which does affect the original list outside the function. x = 3 y = [1, 2, 3] func(x, y): p1 gets a copy of x → p1 = 3, but p1 = 1 does not affect x p2 is a reference to the same list as y, so p2[0] = 42 changes y[0] x is still 3 y[0] is now 42
