https://cloud.google.com/load-balancing/docs/l7-internal "If a backend becomes unhealthy, traffic is automatically redirected to healthy backends within the same region. If all backends are unhealthy, the load balancer returns an HTTP 503 Service Unavailable response." "One or more backends must be connected to the backend service. Because the scope of an internal HTTP(S) load balancer is regional, not global, clients and backend VMs or endpoints must all be in the same region. Backends can be instance groups or NEGs in any of the following configurations: Managed instance groups (zonal or regional)" I would take C as the answer since the application runs on the MIG and traffic is being controlled by the load balancer

Disregard what I said about C being the answer Correct answer is B as Stackdriver or Cloud Monitoring uptime checks can be used to check if the application is unavailable. https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/uptime-checks: "An uptime check is a request sent to a resource to see if it responds. You can use uptime checks to determine the availability of a VM instance, an App Engine service, a URL, or an AWS load balancer."
