Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

Snowflake bills virtual warehouse usage in one-minute increments, rounding up to the nearest minute for any partial minute of compute time used. If a virtual warehouse runs for 61 seconds and then, after being shut down, restarts and runs for an additional 30 seconds, the total time billed would be 120 seconds or 2 minutes. The first 61 seconds are rounded up to 2 minutes, and the subsequent 30 seconds are within a new minute, which is also rounded up to the nearest minute.
