Tested in dev tenant. You have to create the mail enabled group in another portal, like O365, but you can then select it when assigning the policy.

Mail-enabled security groups function the same as regular security groups, except that they cannot be dynamically managed through Azure Active Directory and cannot contain devices. They include the ability to send mail to all the members of the group. Mail-enabled security groups can be added to a team. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/create-groups/compare-groups?view=o365-worldwide#mail-enabled-security-groups

The crux of the question is "You plan to create a new Windows 10 Security Baseline profile." The question is implying that you're creating a *DEVICE* Baseline profile, in which case only a security group will work because mail-enabled security groups cannot contain devices. QED: A.

A very tricky question from Microsoft here - the link below specifies that you can apply the baseline to groups of both users and devices. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/protect/security-baselines Therefore, this makes the answer C - group 2 and 3.

C: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/protect/security-baselines "You deploy security baselines to groups of users or devices in Intune, and the settings apply to devices that run Windows 10/11." The email enabled security group can be used.

I agree that it's A. It's a tricky one. Read the post that OneplusOne cites and you'll find this: "Mail-enabled security groups function the same as regular security groups, except that they cannot be dynamically managed through Azure Active Directory and cannot contain devices."

This is not a problem because a Windows 10 security Baseline profile can be assigned to either a devices or a users.

This is one of those questions where both security group types can be used but what is not clear is which is "best practice" in Microsoft's eyes and thus hard to know what the correct answer should be.
