Consider two lists of numbers called list1 and list2. A programmer wants to determine how many different values appear in both lists. For example, if list1 contains [10, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60] and list2 contains [20, 20, 40, 60, 80], then there are three different values that appear in both lists (20, 40, and 60). The programmer has the following procedures available. Procedure CallExplanationCombine (myList1, myList2)This procedure creates a new list containing the elements from myList1 ​followed by the entries from myList2. The resulting list is returned. For example, if myList1 contains [2, 4, 6] and myList2 contains [1, 5], the procedure will return the list [2, 4, 6, 1, 5].RemoveAllDups (myList)This procedure creates a new list containing the elements of myList with any duplicate values removed. The resulting list is returned. For example, if myList contains [3, 2, 4, 2, 2, 5, 6, 4], the procedure will return the list [3, 2, 4, 5, 6]. Which of the following can be used to assign the intended value to count ? A bothList ←← Combine (list1, list2) uniqueList ←← RemoveAllDups (bothList) count ←← LENGTH (bothList) - LENGTH (uniqueList) B newList1 ←← RemoveAllDups (list1) newList2 ←← RemoveAllDups (list2) bothList ←← Combine (newList1, newList2) count ←← LENGTH (list1) + LENGTH (list2) - LENGTH (bothList) C newList1 ←← RemoveAllDups (list1) newList2 ←← RemoveAllDups (list2) bothList ←← Combine (newList1, newList2) count ←← LENGTH (newList1) + LENGTH (newList2) - LENGTH (bothList) D newList1 ←← RemoveAllDups (list1) newList2 ←← RemoveAllDups (list2) bothList ←← Combine (newList1, newList2) uniqueList ←← RemoveAllDups (bothList) count ←← LENGTH (bothList) - LENGTH (uniqueList)
