Explanation

Apple iPhones (up through the iPhone 14 series) use the proprietary Lightning connector for data transfer and charging. Lightning is Apple's standard for connecting iPhones and older iPads to computers and accessories. USB-C (A) is used on newer iPhones (15 and later) and many Android devices, but the answer assumes the traditional Apple connector. Serial (B) is an obsolete legacy connection type. NFC (D) is used for short-range wireless communication and payments, not file transfers.
