B Correct answer
Explanation

Android uses a different Java virtual machine (Dalvik or ART) and different class libraries than Java ME or Java SE. Android applications are compiled to Dalvik bytecode (.dex format), not standard JVM bytecode. Standard Java ME/SE applications cannot run on Android without significant modification due to these fundamental differences in runtime environment and APIs.
