It's D - https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2021/04/you-now-can-use-aws-cloudtrail-to-log-amazon-dynamodb-streams-da/. No need of separator trails as in C.

Selected Answer: D
If you create a trail, you can enable continuous delivery of CloudTrail events to an Amazon S3 bucket, including events for DynamoDB. That can include events from the data and the control plane. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/logging-using-cloudtrail.html

what's the difference between C and D? if you have a trail setup then still you can see the logs but only recent history but that is not the requirements. so setup a trail to push the data to CloudWatch. As per parle101 link
