Explanation
The 'Apply to each' action in Power Automate is a loop that iterates over every item in a collection - in this case, the list of active contacts returned from a query. For each contact in that collection, the flow executes the 'Send an email' action. This is the correct way to process multiple records one at a time. Option A (Condition) adds an if/else branch but does not iterate over records. Option C (Wait) pauses the flow for a duration or until a specific time, which is unrelated. Option D (Parallel branch) splits the flow into concurrent paths but does not loop through a list of records.
