What must you do to recover from exceptions in Apply.java?

  1. Catch and handle them accordingly

  2. Log them to a file and terminate the program

  3. Convert them to RuntimeExceptions

  4. Exceptions in Apply.java are ignored

The correct answer is: Convert them to RuntimeExceptions

Exceptions in Apply.java cannot be ignored as they can lead to serious issues during program execution. Option A is incorrect because catching and handling exceptions may not be the most appropriate solution in all cases. Option B may be useful in some cases, but it is not the recommended way to recover from exceptions as it terminates the program, which can result in data loss. Option D is incorrect as it is not possible for exceptions in Apply.java to be completely ignored. The most appropriate solution is to convert the exception to a RuntimeException, which allows the program to continue execution without terminating and provides an opportunity for the user to handle the exception appropriately.
