Explanation

Lightning is Apple's proprietary connector used on iPhones, iPads, and iPods (prior to the USB-C transition). It supports both charging and data transfer, satisfying the user's requirements. MicroUSB and MiniUSB are standard connectors used on Android and other non-Apple devices. Molex is a legacy internal PC power connector entirely unrelated to mobile devices. For Apple devices using the Lightning standard, this is the correct answer; newer Apple devices use USB-C, but Lightning is the classic Apple mobile connector tested on CompTIA A+.
