1. In the sublinear regime, the degrees follow the stretched exponential distribution
2. The Barabási-Albert Model corresponds to the linear regime and follows a power law distribution
3. In the superlinear regime, one can observe the formation of a hub-and-spoke network in which most nodes connect directly to a few central nodes
4. The rich-gets-richer process takes place in the linear regime where all nodes connect to super-hubs

Now select the true statements:

    A. 1, 2, and 3

    B. 2, 3, and 4

    C. 2 and 4

    D. All the statements

    E. None of the above
