Which method registers a thread in a thread scheduler?

run();
construct();
start();
register();

Correct Answer: start();

Explanation:

Option C is correct. The start() method causes this thread to begin execution; the Java Virtual Machine calls the run method of this thread.

Option A is wrong. The run() method of a thread is like the main() method to an application. Starting the thread causes the object's run method to be called in that separately executing thread.

Option B is wrong. There is no construct() method in the Thread class.

Option D is wrong. There is no register() method in the Thread class.
