Selected Answer: C
Xmas scan is a type of inverse TCP scanning technique with the FIN, URG, and PUSH flags set to send a TCP frame to a remote device. If the target has opened the port, then you will receive no response from the remote system. If the target has closed the port, then you will receive a remote system reply with an RST.
