Wait, is this a trick question? Elasticity is clearly about the system's ability to bounce back, like a rubber band, right? Okay, maybe that's not it...

I agree with Marg, A makes more sense in this context.

Option D is a bit too broad, in my opinion. Elasticity is specifically about the ability to scale, not just the variety of cloud offerings.

Hmm, I don't think option C quite captures the essence of elasticity. That sounds more like reliability or consistency to me.

This is a tricky one, but I'd say option B is the best description. Elasticity is about a business's ability to scale up and down, not just the technical side.
