Selected Answer: A
You can set a drop action to send a type 3 ICMP, but "Drop, send ICMP Unreachable" is not the name of any action. The right answer is A.

If you check the possible value of the actions, it can be : Allow, deny,drop,drop-icmp, RST client , RST server, RST both So you are not right.

There is the action like that, here is the information. https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/9-1/pan-os-admin/policy/security-policy/security-policy-actions or Layer 3 interfaces, to optionally send an ICMP unreachable response to the client, set Action: Drop and enable the Send ICMP Unreachable check box. When enabled, the firewall sends the ICMP code

Technically the action is indeed "Drop", the tick box of the "Send ICMP..." is optional. So yeah, John is correct.
