How can a developer override a core class method in Adobe Commerce?
A . <preference for=’MagentoCatalogBlockProduct" type="VendorModuleBlockProducf />
B. <typename="MagentoCatalogBlockProduct"> q <rewrite
class="VendorModuleBlockProducf /> </type>
C. <typename="MagentoCatalogBlockProduct*> <arguments> q <argument name="rewrtte"
xsi:type="object">VendorModuleBlockProduct</argument> </arguments> </type>

Answer: A

Explanation:

The preference element in di.xml allows specifying a custom class that will be used instead of the original class when creating an object1. This can be used to override a core class method by extending the original class and overriding the method in the custom class1. The rewrite and argument elements are not valid for overriding core class methods in di.xml1.
