Besides the fluorescent lamp itself and possibly a starter, which of the following components is included in a fluorescent lighting fixture?

AMagnetron
BLaser
CBallast (choke coil)
DMagnetic resonator
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) Ballast (choke coil). A fluorescent lighting fixture, besides the fluorescent lamp itself and possibly a starter, includes a ballast (choke coil). The ballast is an essential component that regulates the current flowing through the fluorescent lamp, ensuring proper operation and preventing damage to the lamp. Without a ballast, the lamp would not function properly. The other options, A) Magnetron, B) Laser, and D) Magnetic resonator, are not components typically found in a standard fluorescent lighting fixture. These are not the correct answers for this type of lighting system.
