BResource groups contain subscriptions and subscriptions contain management groups
CManagement groups contain subscriptions, subscriptions contain resource groups, and resource groups contain resources
DAll resources sit directly under the global Azure tenant with no intermediate grouping

Correct answer: C. Management groups contain subscriptions, subscriptions contain resource groups, and resource groups contain resources
The hierarchy is Tenant → Management groups → Subscriptions → Resource groups → Resources. Policies and RBAC applied at higher levels are inherited downward. The other options reverse or flatten the structure.
