Which statement about Azure resource groups is correct?
A.A resource can belong to multiple resource groups simultaneously
One resource = one resource group, always. It can be moved to a different group, but never duplicated.
B.A resource group is a logical container; each resource belongs to exactly one, and deleting the group deletes all resources in it
Correct — single membership + lifecycle container semantics.
C.Resources in a group must be deployed in the same region
A group can hold resources in different regions; the group itself just has a metadata location.
D.Resource groups cannot be nested or moved
Groups can't be nested (that's management groups), but resources CAN be moved between them.
Why this answer
Every resource lives in exactly one resource group. Groups act as a management/lifecycle boundary — applying RBAC, tags, locks, and deletion to the group affects all contained resources. Resources in a group CAN span regions.
