BIDIR-PIM: same tree for receiving and sending Multicast traffic & less stae in routers because many sources produce a single (*,G) only - examples: stock exchange. These meet the requirements best.

Bidir-PIM is designed to be used for many-to-many applications within individual PIM domains. Multicast groups in bidirectional PIM mode can scale to an arbitrary number of sources without incurring overhead due to the number of sources. So answer is D -> BIDIR PIM

D - Actually PIM-SM creates shared trees (not source trees). However, BDIR-PIM eliminates the need for a first-hop route to encapsulate data packets being sent to the RP - then scales better in a "many-to-many" deployment

PIM-SM is correct. As there is two requirements that use Many-to-many model and no source tree. BIDIR PIM use source tree.
