The question does not imply that you need to remove the computer, but that you have to uninstall Active Directory. Thus, the right answer should be D

None of the answers actually achieve the goal of removing AD from a Domain Controller. You would want to run Uninstall-ADDSDomainController from PowerShell on DC5 to remove AD and demote the server. If you try to run uninstall-windowsfeature ad-domain-services without demoting the DC first, you will receive an error message.
