The correct answer is C. Virtual Desktop Agent D. Provisioning services target device.

Why each option
A master image used for PVS-streamed machines must contain both the Virtual Desktop Agent (for XenDesktop communication) and the Provisioning Services Target Device software (for streaming the OS from the PVS server).
Receiver (Citrix Workspace app) is a client-side component installed on endpoint devices to connect to virtual desktops, not a component installed on the master image itself.
Online plug-in is an older client-side component equivalent to Receiver and is likewise installed on endpoint devices, not on the streamed master image.
The Virtual Desktop Agent (VDA) must be installed on the master image so that streamed machines can register with the Delivery Controller and broker user sessions, enabling HDX connections.
The Provisioning Services Target Device software must be installed on the master image so the machine can boot from and stream its OS disk from the PVS server rather than a local disk.
