Checked exceptions are those that must be either handled (by using a try-catch block) or declared in a method's signature using the "throws" keyword. The compiler checks to ensure that either of these options has been implemented for checked exceptions. Unchecked exceptions, on the other hand, do not need to be handled or declared. The Java runtime can handle them if they are not explicitly handled in the code. Therefore, statement A is false, statement B is true for unchecked exceptions, and statement D is false.
