Explanation

In order to minimize the risk of damage to add-on cards and motherboard, users should take the following precautions: Keep them in antistatic bags whenever they are removed from the computer. Antistatic bags protect them from static charges. Keep water and liquids away from electronic circuits, as they might cause short circuits. Wear antistatic wrist strap while handling or repairing a computer. The antistatic wrist strap prevents static electricity from building up. Users should protect their computers and sensitive components such as RAM from short circuits and static charges, as they can cause critical damage to electronic components. Answer option C is incorrect. Add-on cards and the motherboard should not be cleaned with a water spray gun. It can destroy them. In order to clean them, compressed air and isopropyl alcohol can be used.
