- B.Lists all files (including hidden) in long format with permissions

Why B is correct
The 'ls' command lists directory contents. The '-l' flag shows detailed (long) format including permissions, owner, size, and modification date. The '-a' flag includes hidden files (those starting with a dot). Together, 'ls -la' gives a comprehensive view of all files and their metadata.
