True—Kubernetes was born from Google's decade-long experience running Borg, a cluster manager for massive-scale workloads.

True—Minikube creates a single-node cluster locally, and kind runs Kubernetes in Docker containers, perfect for development.

Kubernetes can scale down, but not to zero by default; the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler requires at least one replica unless using custom metrics or add-ons.

True—Services use label selectors to dynamically target pods, abstracting away individual pod IPs.

True—etcd is the distributed key-value store that holds all cluster data, from secrets to pod specs.
