B.An object is used to show the object’s record within the Salesforce user interface while a tab stores the field definitions and records
C.Salesforce objects and tabs are the same
D.Once you create salesforce object a tab is automatically created

Correct Answer: A 
A tab is used to show the objects record within the Salesforce user interface while object stores the field definitions and records. Once you create an object you need to create a tab for it. 
Option B is incorrect because an object stores the field definitions and records while a tab shows up on the user interface and it exposes the objects records. 
Option C is incorrect because Salesforce objects and tabs are not the same 
Option D is incorrect because once you create an object you need to create a tab. It is not displayed automatically.
