Selected Answer: C

Private Google Access lets you connect VM instances to GCP services without external IP addresses and only internal. A is wrong because even though Private Services Access lets you also access GCP and other services through internal IPs, it also allows the VMs to have external IPs. https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/private-google-access

Selected Answer: C

Cloud Storage is not a supported service for Private Service Access. Hence, A cannot be the answer. https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/private-services-access#private-services-supported-services VM instances that only have internal IP addresses (no external IP addresses) can use Private Google Access. They can reach the external IP addresses of Google APIs and services. If you disable Private Google Access, the VM instances can no longer reach Google APIs and services; they can only send traffic within the VPC network. https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/private-google-access
