Regarding Ethereum contracts, the contracts can call (perform) two specific message calls. The message calls are either _____________ or __________?
(Select two.)

  • A. Bitcoin nodes
  • B. Send Ether to non-contract
  • C. DApps
  • D. Other contracts
  • E. Ether Nodes


Answer : BD

Explanation:
Contracts can call other contracts or send Ether to non-contract accounts by the means of message calls. Message calls are similar to transactions, in that they have a source, a target, data payload, Ether, gas and return data. In fact, every transaction consists of a top-level message call which in turn can create further message calls.
