  2. filter() returns a single object, get() returns a QuerySet

  3. Both filter() and get() return a QuerySet with the same behavior

  4. filter() raises an exception if no results found, get() returns None

Show answer & explanation

filter() returns a QuerySet, get() returns a single object or raises an exception
