Selected Answer: C
For an SSL/TLS certificate to be trusted, the system must have the root certificate (and any intermediate certificates) from the issuing Certificate Authority (CA) installed in its trusted certificate store. If the root or intermediate certificate is missing, the system will not recognize the SSL certificate as valid, leading to trust errors during testing.
