We start with
$$
f(x)=3e^{-x^3}.
$$

**Step 1. Compute $$ f'(x) $$:**

Differentiate using the chain rule:
$$
f'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\left[3e^{-x^3}\right]=3\cdot e^{-x^3}\cdot (-3x^2)=-9x^2 e^{-x^3}.
$$

**Step 2. Compute $$ f''(x) $$:**

Differentiate $$ f'(x)=-9x^2 e^{-x^3} $$ using the product rule:
$$
u(x)=-9x^2 \quad \text{and} \quad v(x)=e^{-x^3}.
$$
Their derivatives are:
$$
u'(x)=-18x \quad \text{and} \quad v'(x)=e^{-x^3}\cdot (-3x^2)=-3x^2 e^{-x^3}.
$$
Thus,
$$
\begin{aligned}
f''(x) &= u'(x)v(x) + u(x)v'(x) \
       &= (-18x)e^{-x^3} + (-9x^2)(-3x^2 e^{-x^3}) \
       &= -18x e^{-x^3} + 27x^4 e^{-x^3} \
       &= e^{-x^3}\left(-18x+27x^4\right) \
       &= 9x e^{-x^3}\left( -2+3x^3 \right).
\end{aligned}
$$
Thus, 
$$
f''(x)=9x e^{-x^3}(3x^3-2).
$$

**Step 3. Evaluate $$ f''(0) $$:**

Substitute $$ x=0 $$:
$$
f''(0)=9\cdot 0\cdot e^{0}\cdot (3\cdot 0^3-2)=0.
$$

So, the answer to the first selection is:

A. $$ f^{\prime \prime}(0)=0 $$

**Step 4. Evaluate $$ f''(2) $$:**

Substitute $$ x=2 $$:
$$
\begin{aligned}
f''(2) &=9\cdot 2\cdot e^{-(2)^3}\left(3(2)^3-2\right) \
       &=18e^{-8}\left(3\cdot 8-2\right) \
       &=18e^{-8}(24-2) \
       &=18e^{-8}\cdot 22 \
       &=396e^{-8}.
\end{aligned}
$$

Numerically, $$ e^{-8}\approx 0.00033546 $$, so
$$
f''(2)\approx396\cdot 0.00033546\approx0.1328.
$$

Thus, the answer to the second selection is:

A. $$ f^{\prime \prime}(2)=0.1328 $$
$$ f''(x) = 9x e^{-x^3}(3x^3 - 2) $$ $$ f''(0) = 0 $$ $$ f''(2) \approx 0.1328 $$
