B and D are correct:

For B: Duplexing applies only to backup sets, not image copies.

For D: RMAN does not automate the splitting of mirrors, but can make use of split mirrors in backup and recovery. For example, RMAN can treat a split mirror of a datafile as a datafile copy, and can also back up this copy to disk or tape.
