Which of the following must be installed to allow service administrators the ability to configure and administer user profiles with synchronization, audiences, My Sites, Social tags and notes across multiple sites and farms?

Answer and explanation are below.
Answer is B. The User Profile service must be installed, and it allows service administrators the ability to configure and administer user profiles with synchronization, audiences, My Sites, Social tags and notes across the farm.
