B is correct! The purpose of MAC addresses is to provide a unique hardware address or physical address for every node on a local area network (LAN) or other network. A node is a point at which a computer or other device (e.g., a printer or router) is connected to the network.

Eu acho que a resposta é D. Porque ele pergunta: "Qual a finalidade de um endereço de controle de acesso à mídia (MAC)?" A pergunta não é: O que é um um endereço de controle de acesso à mídia (MAC)?
