Question
The block service provides a linked clone mechanism that supports the creation of multiple snapshots based on a clone volume. The data content of each snapshot volume when it is first created is consistent with the data content in the clone volume. Subsequent modifications to the clone volume will not affect the original snapshot and other clone volumes.

Explanation
Option A is correct because linked clone technology works by creating snapshot volumes that capture the data state of the clone volume at the moment of creation, using a copy-on-write mechanism to preserve that initial state. When the clone volume is later modified, the storage system writes changed blocks to the clone while leaving the snapshot volumes untouched, so each snapshot remains a stable, independent point-in-time copy. Option B is wrong because it implies the statement is false, which contradicts how linked clones and snapshots are designed to behave - isolation between snapshots and their parent clone is the core guarantee of the mechanism.
Memory tip: Think of snapshots as photographs taken of the clone volume. Once the photo is taken, changes to the subject do not alter the photo already printed.
