Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only situation that bgp cares about IGP's
synchronization
is when bgp is explicitly configured to announce networks (i.e network
x.x.x.x mask x.x.x.x) and it would have to check the igp to see if there
is a valid route to that network. This can be overridden by 'no
synchronization'. However, the default behavior is that bgp announces
active (I'm not sure what activate means) routes (routes which are
reachable via an IGP's routing table) to all configured bgp peers
irrespective of whether
they are an ibgp or ebgp peer. For this reason, I would select A. It's
still very poorly worded, assuming 'activate' is not a typo.
hope this helps
