Correct answer: A
Explanation
To deploy a single website on App Engine that needs to be accessible via a custom domain, the correct steps are to first verify domain ownership with Webmaster Central, then create a DNS CNAME record to point to the App Engine canonical name ghs.googlehosted.com. Verifying domain ownership is necessary to ensure that the domain is legitimate and owned by the person who is trying to use it. Creating a DNS CNAME record is necessary to map the custom domain to the App Engine service. This is done by creating a CNAME record that points the custom domain to the App Engine canonical name, which is a domain name that is unique to the App Engine service. By following these steps, users will be able to access the website via the custom domain without any issues.Discussion
