Explanation
Airplane mode is designed to disable all wireless radio transmissions that could interfere with aircraft systems. Cellular data (D) and Wi-Fi/wireless (E) are always disabled because they use radio signals to communicate with cell towers and wireless access points. Bluetooth (A) is a radio technology too, but on modern devices it can often be manually re-enabled in airplane mode (e.g., to use wireless headphones), so it is not guaranteed to be disabled. Multi-touch (B) and data encryption (C) are software/hardware features entirely unrelated to radio transmission and are never affected by airplane mode.
