What does the loading="lazy" attribute on an img tag do?
- A Delays the image by a fixed time
- B Defers loading until the image is near the viewport

Answer
Defers loading until the image is near the viewport
Lazy loading saves bandwidth for below-the-fold images. It should not be applied to the LCP image, as that delays the largest paint.
