Selected Answer: D
The command that kills the process with the PID 123 but allows the process to "clean up" before exiting is: D. `kill -TERM 123` Using `kill -TERM` (or simply `kill 123`) sends a termination signal to the process, allowing it to perform cleanup operations and terminate gracefully. This is the standard way to request a process to stop and is not as forceful as `kill -KILL`, which terminates the process abruptly without allowing it to clean up.
