300-910 · Question #2
Refer to the exhibit. What is the reason for this error message? Traceback (most recent call last): File "api-call.py", line 1, in <module> import requests File "/usr/devnet/vsnv/devops/lib/python3.7/
The correct answer is C. The required dependencies for the requests module are not installed.. The traceback indicates a ModuleNotFoundError for urllib3 when requests is trying to import it, meaning urllib3 is a missing dependency for the requests module.

Why each option
The traceback indicates a `ModuleNotFoundError` for `urllib3` when `requests` is trying to import it, meaning `urllib3` is a missing dependency for the `requests` module.
The error message specifically states 'No module named 'urllib3'', not that `urllib3` is installed but its own dependencies are missing.
The `import requests` line at the beginning of the traceback indicates that the `requests` module *is* found and is attempting to load, so it is installed.
The traceback indicates that the `requests` module itself is being imported successfully, but then encounters `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'urllib3'` when attempting to import `urllib3` internally. This means that `urllib3` is a required dependency for `requests` to function correctly, and it is not installed or accessible in the Python environment.
While a corrupted `site-packages` directory could lead to module import errors, the specific `ModuleNotFoundError` for a particular module suggests a targeted missing dependency rather than general corruption.
