Correct Answer:

The file in the /proc/ file system that contains a list of all currently mounted devices is /proc/mounts. This file provides information about the mounted filesystems, and while it might be a symbolic link to /proc/self/mounts in some systems, /proc/mounts is a widely accepted and recognized path.

True the correct answer is /proc/self/mounts since /proc/mounts is a symbolic link
