Explanation
Option B is correct because the statement reverses the actual relationship: the Pod, not the container, is the smallest deployable and schedulable unit in Kubernetes. Kubernetes does not manage containers directly; instead, it manages Pods, and each Pod contains one or more containers that share networking and storage resources.
Option A is wrong because it accepts the flawed premise that containers are the orchestration unit. While containers are the core runtime component, Kubernetes abstracts above them - you schedule, scale, and monitor Pods, not individual containers.
Memory tip: Think of a Pod as the "shipping crate" and containers as the "cargo" inside it. Kubernetes moves crates, not loose cargo.
