Explanation
A (True) is correct because IEEE 802.11k is specifically the "Radio Resource Measurement" amendment, designed to let a client (terminal) actively scan and collect information about neighboring APs - signal strength, channel utilization, etc. - and report that data back to its currently associated AP. This enables the network to make smarter, faster roaming decisions.
B is wrong because 802.11k does not disable or limit this capability; the standard was explicitly created to enable this active neighbor reporting mechanism.
Memory tip: Think of 802.11k as "knowledge gathering" - the client gathers knowledge about nearby APs and hands that report to its current AP, enabling smart roaming decisions.
