Answer options

• C. Declarative code logic does not require maintenance or review.
• D. Declarative development has higher design limits and query limits.

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct answers, A and B, highlight that declarative development simplifies certain processes by eliminating the need for Apex test classes and allowing changes through the Setup menu.
