B
The 'toPandasAPI()' method converts a Spark DataFrame to a Pandas on Spark DataFrame, while the 'toPandas()' method converts it to a Pandas DataFrame.
C
Both 'toPandasAPI()' and 'toPandas()' methods convert a Spark DataFrame to a Pandas DataFrame, but the former is optimized for distributed computing.
D
Both 'toPandasAPI()' and 'toPandas()' methods are not applicable in Pandas API on Spark, as they are used for converting between Spark and Pandas DataFrames.
