D.

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
In Unix, the head command is used to display the top part of a file. It prints the first 10 lines of the specified file by default. If you want to display a different number of lines, you can specify it using the -n option followed by the number of lines you want to display.
So, head is the correct command to display the top of a file.
