Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cross-docking involves the transfer of goods directly from incoming to outbound without going to storage. This means that option A is the correct answer as it accurately describes cross-docking. Option B, using docks for either incoming or outbound shipments, may or may not involve cross-docking, while option C, using a single dock for both unloading and loading, is not specific to cross-docking. Therefore, options B, C, and D are not the best choices.
