Consider the following C program segment
struct CellNode{ 
    struct CellNode *leftChild; 
    int element; 
    struct CellNode *rightChild; 
  };
 
int Dosomething (struct CellNode *ptr) { 
      int value = 0; 
      if (ptr ! = NULL) 
          { if (ptr - > leftChild ! = NULL) 
            value = 1 + DoSomething (ptr - > leftChild); 
          if (ptr - > rightChild ! = NULL) 
            value = max(value,1 + DoSomething (ptr - > rightChild)); 
          } 
      return (value); 
} 
The value returned by the function DoSomething when a pointer to the root of a non-empty tree is passed as argument is
A
The number of leaf nodes in the tree
B
The number of nodes in the tree
C
The number of internal nodes in the tree
D
The height of the tree

A program takes as input a balanced binary search tree with n leaf nodes and computes the value of a function g(x) for each node x. If the cost of computing g(x) is min{ no. of leaf-nodes in left-subtree of x, no. of leaf-nodes in right-subtree of x } then the worst-case time complexity of the program is
A
$$\Theta (n)$$
B
$$\Theta (n \log n)$$
C
$$\Theta(n^2)$$
D
$$\Theta (n^2\log n)$$
