Typo in answer A, should be Profile-Driven Storage

Are you sure about this answer? I would have said c: SDSR/vMotion. Profile Driven Storage only answers the performance requirement but not capacity, availability or redundancy. Only an SDRS ctorage cluster does this.

A is correct per VMware doc….

ESXi and vCenter Server 5.0 Documentation > vSphere Storage

Virtual Machine Storage Profiles

With profile-driven storage, you use storage capabilities and virtual machine storage profiles to ensure that virtual machines use storage that guarantees a certain level of capacity, performance, availability, redundancy, and so on.

Why would it not be Capacity Planner? Isn’t this exactly what the tool is designed for?
