Cfunction resolver(context, args, parent) { ... }

Solution:

Step 1: Recall resolver function signature
In GraphQL, the first argument to a resolver is the parent object, followed by args and context.
Step 2: Match signature with options
Only function resolver(parent, args, context) { ... } correctly places parent as the first argument, allowing access to previous resolver's result.
Final Answer:
function resolver(parent, args, context) { ... } -> Option D

Parent is first argument in resolver [OK]

Quick Trick: Parent is always the first argument in resolver functions [OK]
