It’s B because 802.11 is the IEEE standard that sets the rules for wireless LANs, basically Wi-Fi. The other options don’t directly describe what 802.11 covers.

B imo, 802.11 is all about Wi-Fi and wireless signals, so it’s not really connected to PKI or OSI models directly. The other options are just general tech concepts, not specific standards like this one.

Not C, since packet-switching is a broader concept and not specific to 802.11, which clearly focuses on wireless networking standards, so B is the best fit here.

B/D? 802.11 is definitely wireless-related, but D’s about OSI layers which 802.11 fits into too, though indirectly. Still, B’s the direct match for what 802.11 specifies.

B imo. The other options don’t really fit; 802.11 is specifically about wireless networking, so PKI and OSI model are off-topic here. Packet-switching is more general and not tied to 802.11.
