I think the answer is C WRED can selectively discard lower priority traffic when the interface begins to get congested and provide differentiated performance characteristics for different classes of service. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios-xml/ios/qos_conavd/configuration/15-mt/qos-conavd-15-mt-book/qos-conavd-oview.html#:~:text=WRED%20can%20selectively%20discard%20lower,for%20different%20classes%20of%20service.

is C: Congestion Avoidance monitors network traffic loads in an effort to anticipate and avoid congestion. Congestion Avoidance is achieved through packet dropping. Typically, congestion avoidance is implemented on output interfaces where high-speed links intersect with low speed links. Congestion Avoidance in Cisco products uses Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) to avoid congestion by dropping low priority packets and allowing high priority packets to continue on their path.

WRED makes early detection of congestion possible and provides a means for handling multiple classes of traffic. WRED can selectively discard lower priority traffic when the router begins to experience congestion and provide differentiated performance characteristics for different classes of service.

The question asks you which packet is dropped FIRST and the first thing that comes to you is to think about a mechanism which assures which packet goes first and assume that is correct ? Great logic mate...

CBWFQ is a scheduling mechanism used to provide a minimum bandwidth guarantee to traffic classes during times of network congestion at an interface. Each of the CBWFQ queues is assigned a weight, and the packets are served from the queues based upon the weight of the queue. WRED can selectively discard lower priority traffic when the interface begins to get congested and provide differentiated performance characteristics for different classes of service. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios/qos/configuration/guide/12_2sr/qos_12_2sr_book/congestion_avoidance.html
