This question concerns the following class definition: 1. package abcde; 2. 3. public class Bird { 4. protected static int referenceCount = 0; 5. public Bird() { referenceCount++; } 6. protected void fly() { /* Flap wings, etc. */ } 7. static int getRefCount() { return referenceCount; } 8. } Which statement is true about class Bird and the following class Nightingale? 1. package singers; 2. 3. class Nightingale extends abcde.Bird { 4. Nightingale() { referenceCount++; } 5. 6. public static void main(String args[]) { 7. System.out.print("Before: " + referenceCount); 8. Nightingale florence = new Nightingale(); 9. System.out.println(" After: " + referenceCount); 10. florence.fly(); 11. } 12. } A. The program will compile and execute. The output will be Before: 0 After: 2. B. The program will compile and execute. The output will be Before: 0 After: 1. C. Compilation of Nightingale will fail at line 4 because static members cannot be overridden. D. Compilation of Nightingale will fail at line 10 because method fly() is protected in the superclass. E. Compilation of Nightingale will succeed, but an exception will be thrown at line 10, because method fly() is protected in the superclass.
