Correct

The correct answer is C. The user administrator (USERADMIN) role includes the privileges to create and manage users and roles (assuming ownership of those roles or users has not been transferred to another role). The security administrator (i.e users with the SECURITYADMIN system role) role includes the global MANAGE GRANTS privilege to grant or revoke privileges on objects in the account. The USERADMIN role is a child of this role in the default access control hierarchy. https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/security-access-control-considerations
