Explanation

To connect an Android tablet to a Microsoft Exchange server for email, the technician would configure POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3) to receive incoming email and SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) to send outgoing email. These are the standard email communication protocols supported across virtually all platforms including Android. DNS and DHCP (A) are network infrastructure services unrelated to email client configuration. SNTP (B) is a time-synchronization protocol, not an email sending protocol - making that pairing invalid. The devices are not incompatible (D); Android fully supports Exchange email via standard protocols or Exchange ActiveSync. POP3/SMTP is the correct client-side configuration answer here.
