Explanation

Google's recommended practice for policy segmentation is to place the organization at the top-level OU and create child OUs beneath it for each department. Policies applied to a child OU override or extend the parent OU's settings, enabling per-department control without redundancy. Option A (separate top-level OUs per department) is not the recommended structure and makes it harder to apply org-wide baseline policies. Option B (Access groups) can supplement OU-based policy but groups alone are not the primary mechanism for device policy. Option C (all users in the top-level OU) prevents any per-department differentiation.
