Why each option

Data VLANs on access ports are designed for end devices and can only belong to a single VLAN, acting as host ports.

AThey can be configured as trunk ports

Access ports carry traffic for a single VLAN, while trunk ports are configured to carry traffic for multiple VLANs.

BTwo or more VLANs can be configured on the interface

An access port is limited to a single VLAN and cannot carry traffic for two or more VLANs simultaneously.

C802.1Q encapsulation must be configured on the interface

802.1Q encapsulation is typically configured on trunk ports to tag traffic from multiple VLANs, not on access ports.

DExactly one VLAN can be configured on the interface.Correct

Access ports are specifically designed to carry traffic for a single VLAN, meaning only one data VLAN can be assigned to them.

EThey can be configured as host ports.Correct

Access ports are intended to connect end devices (hosts) to the network and are therefore considered host ports.
