A.
Auto

B.
Negotiate

C.
Designate

D.
Nonegotiate

Explanation:

Only ports in desirable and auto mode will negotiate a channel (either desirable-auto or desirable-desirable). Ports in on mode will only form a functional channel with other ports in on mode (they will not negotiate a channel with ports in desirable or auto mode).
