You have been asked to deploy a highly available Kubernetes cluster using Google Kubernetes Engine by your manager. While spinning up the cluster you realize you do not see option of creating master.

GKE does use a master node (control plane) to manage child nodes; it's simply managed by Google.

Users do not need to manually spin up a compute instance and configure it as a master node; GKE handles this automatically.

In Google Kubernetes Engine, the Kubernetes control plane (master node) is a fully managed service provided by Google. Users do not directly create or manage the master node; it is automatically provisioned and maintained by GKE when a cluster is created, ensuring high availability and upgrades.

This statement is incorrect because option C accurately describes the GKE master node management.
