Explanation

USB is the standard wired connection for headsets on laptops, providing both audio input (microphone) and output (speakers) through a single connector. It is universally supported and requires no additional configuration. Bluetooth (A) is wireless, not a physical connection. DVI (B) is a video-only interface with no audio capability. Thunderbolt (C) is a high-speed data and video interface not designed for headset audio, and headsets using Thunderbolt are extremely rare and impractical.
