Opted Answer: A
A sparse file is a type of file that allows applications to allocate only meaningful (non-zero) data on a hard disk cluster. This means that large portions of the file that contain only zeros are not physically stored on the disk, reducing storage space usage. When a sparse file is read, the allocated data is returned as stored, while non-allocated data is returned as zeros.
Master File Table (MFT): Stores metadata about files on an NTFS volume but does not allocate non-zero data.
Slack Space: Refers to unused space within a file cluster but does not involve application-allocated non-zero data
