Answer: C
An applet is a JAVA program that is sent over the network
from the web server, through a web browser, to the client
machine. Then the code is run on the machine. Since the
server does not run the program and the output is not sent
over the network, the performance on both the web server and
network over which the server and client are connected
drastically improves through the use of applets. Performance
improvement is more important than the reasons offered in
choices A and B. Since JAVA virtual machine (JVM) is
embedded in most web browsers, the applet download through
the web browser runs on the client machine from the web
browser, not from the web server, making choice D incorrect.
