Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA) — Question 137

What service account does a Pod use in a given namespace when the service account is not specified?

Answer options

• A. admin
• B. sysadmin
• C. root
• D. default

Correct answer: D

Explanation

When a Pod does not specify a service account, it automatically uses the 'default' service account associated with its namespace. The other options, such as 'admin', 'sysadmin', and 'root', are not standard service accounts in Kubernetes and would not be utilized by default.
