The correct answer is that a vector dynamically resizes to accommodate new elements. A vector is a type of dynamic array that can grow or shrink in size as needed during program execution.
"Has a fixed capacity that cannot be exceeded" describes a static array, which has a size that is determined at creation and cannot be changed.
"Allows only sequential access to its elements" describes data structures like linked lists. While vectors can be accessed sequentially, they also allow for fast, direct access to any element using an index, which is a key difference.
"Stores elements based on a key and allows for element retrieval by key" describes a data structure such as a map, dictionary, or associative array, not a vector.
