Going with D as the question does not specifically mention we have got internal access to a "machine".

I think they are asking for the best exploit to use for lateral movement on the internal network.. https://attack.mitre.org/tactics/TA0008/ LLMNR and NBT-NS poisoning are MitM techniques and MitM is a credential access tactic according to Mitre.
