I'm going to go with Option A. It's the only one that actually makes sense for what ARP is used for.

Hmm, Option D is also incorrect. ARP is all about the Layer 2 header, not the source address of some higher layer.

Option C is completely off. ARP has nothing to do with the Layer z header, whatever that is.

I think Option B makes more sense. ARP is used to discover the source MAC address, not the destination.

Option A is the correct answer. ARP is used to discover the MAC address associated with a given IP address, which is the destination address of the Layer 2 header.
