This is a weird question to install VEM seem to mean doing the below
Install VEM on an ESXi 4.x and 5.x host

To install Cisco Virtual Ethernet Module (VEM) on an ESXi 4.x and 5.x host using the command line:
1.Copy the Cisco VEM to the ESX host using the vSphere Client File Upload feature.This copies the .vib file to the ESX datastore.
2.Log in to the ESXi host as a user with administrator privileges.
3.Determine the datastore path so you can change directory to that path.
4.Run this command and determine the datastore path:

# vdf

5.Change directory to the location of the installer file using this command

f:

# cd /vmfs/volumes/

6.The .vib file for the VEM can be installed on the ESXi host using:

ESXi 5.x: # esxcli software vib install v /vmfs/volumes//cross_cisco-vem-v131-4.2.1.1.4.1.0-3.0.4.vib

So taking this answer B would look correct or the closes to the command in the document

This taken from

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1013551

ESXUPDATE is a command for earlier version of ESXi

jmn

But the following command is doing installtion from a vib file. right?
esxcli software vib install -v

And the following command doing it from local system and zip file. correct ?
esxcli software vib install -d

jmn

jmn

So answer should be option A

The question is weird because it talk about installing the VEM on a ESXi 5.0 host if you take a look at the document in Junn link there are two cli processes listed

Installing VEM Software Locally on a VMware 5.0 Host by Using the CLI

PROCEDURE

Step 1 Copy the VEM software to the /tmp directory.

Step 2 Enter the following command.

esxcli software vib install -v /tmp/VIB_FILE

For example:
esxcli software vib install -v /tmp/cross_cisco-vem-v140-4.2.1.1.5.1.0-3.0.1.vib

Installation Result

Message: Operation finished successfully.

Reboot Required: false

VIBs Installed: Cisco_bootbank_cisco-vem-v140-esx_4.2.1.1.5.1.0-3.0.1

However for installing it on a stateless server

Installing the VEM Software on a Stateless ESXi Host Using esxcli

Step 1 Display the VMware version and build number.

~ # vmware -v

VMware ESXi 5.0.0 build-441354

~ #

~ # vmware -l

VMware ESXi 5.0.0 GA

Step 2 Log in to the ESXi stateless host.

Step 3 Copy the offline bundle to the host.

~ # esxcli software vib install -d
/vmfs/volumes/newnfs/MN-VEM/VEM500-20110728153-BG-release.zip

Installation Result

Message: WARNING: Only live system was updated, the change is not persistent.

Reboot Required: false

VIBs Installed: Cisco_bootbank_cisco-vem-v131-esx_4.2.1.1.4.1.0-3.0.5

VIBs Skipped:

Now this has the zip file extension listed in the answers but is for stateless servers so it could be either A or B

A refers to installing it on a stateless host
B refers to installing it on a ESXi host

The .zip extension point to A being correct but the question seem to refer to ESXi so B would be correct

Guess when it comes to the exam you need to look at what the extension says as Junn say to install a zip file seem to need the d command
