Given a method in a protected class, what access modifier do you use to restrict access to that method to only the other members of the same class?

Question: Given a method in a protected class, what access modifier do you use to restrict access to that method to only the other members of the same class?
[A].

final

[B].

static

[C].

private

[D].

protected

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The private access modifier limits access to members of the same class.

Option A, B, D, and E are wrong because protected are the wrong access modifiers, and final, static, and volatile are modifiers but not access modifiers.
