Your network contains a server named DC1 that runs Windows Server 2008 R2. DC1 hosts an Active Directory-integrated zone named contoso.com.
You need to ensure that DC1 contains the most up-to-date records for the zone.
What should you do?
A.
From DNS Manager, click Transfer from Master.
B.
From DNS Manager, click Update Server data Files.
C.
From Active Directory Sites and Services, click Replicate Now.
D.
From Active Directory Sites and Services, click Check Replication Topology.
Should be A
Surely C.
The Zone is AD integrated, so “Update Server Data Files” does not apply.

As it is AD integrated, you need to Replicate now from the AD Sites and services as shown here:

C is the correct answer.
The answer is B.
read this for an explanation:

The Answer is B. You can’t click “Replicate Now” without having another Domain Controller/Site to replicate to, you will not have that option with just one.
you can’t have a stub zone ADI without a Master primary Zone ADI installed in another CD/DNS server
update server data files:
Using the Windows interface
• For standard primary zones, this procedure causes the DNS server to immediately write its in-memory changes out to disk for storage with the zone file. Normally these changes are only written at predefined update intervals and when the DNS server is shut down.
• For Active Directory-integrated zones, this procedure does not apply. To update Active Directory-integrated zones, see the command-line procedure below.
*********************
Using a command line
/ZoneUpdateFromDs : Required. Updates the zone file with data from Active Directory.
