Question means only one answer is correct.
GDS is used with A. and B. but does not perfom replication nor failovers.
So E is the answer.

see:

Oracle Database 12c – Global Data Services
Load Balancing and Service Failover for Replicated Databases

Citation:
“What GDS is and is not?
GDS does not itself perform data replication, but instead relies on Oracle Active Data Guard or Oracle GoldenGate. GDS does not perform database failovers, but instead relies on Data Guard Broker (or Broker integration with Enterprise Manager). GDS does not replace the functionality of Oracle Clusterware and Oracle RAC. GDS does not coordinate site failover. GDS works seamlessly with Oracle Site Guard, the Oracle product that coordinates full-site failover for both database and application tiers.”
