option C....Default Host Management Configuration creates and applies a default IAM role to ensure that Systems Manager has permissions to manage all instances in the Region and perform automated patch scans using Patch Manager.

Selected Answer: C
"The Default Host Management Configuration setting allows AWS Systems Manager to manage your Amazon EC2 instances automatically as managed instances. Default Host Management Configuration makes it possible to manage EC2 instances without your having to manually create an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) instance profile. Instead, Default Host Management Configuration creates and applies a default IAM role to ensure that Systems Manager has permissions to manage all instances in the AWS account and AWS Region where it's activated."

"Attach the new IAM role to the EC2 instances and the existing IAM role" - You can't attach multiple policies to an EC2 instance. So A is wrong.
