Correct Answer

C. The best answer is to choose the response that matches securities product characteristics, suitability obligations, and regulatory practice for the options call scenario.

The distractors reflect common exam mistakes: ignoring context, using informal shortcuts, skipping verification, or applying a rule from the wrong domain.
