Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Answer: FTP, HTTP, SMTP

  • PROMPT: Used in FTP clients to toggle interactive prompting during multiple-file transfers (so associated with FTP).

  • HEAD: An HTTP request method that retrieves only the headers for a resource (so associated with HTTP).

  • RCPT: Part of the SMTP command set (RCPT TO) used to specify mail recipients (so associated with SMTP).

Note: PROMPT is typically a client-side FTP command (not an HTTP protocol method), which is why the correct order is FTP, HTTP, SMTP.
