Explanation

Azure Application Gateway can only be deployed to subnets that are not reserved for other Azure platform services. GatewaySubnet is a reserved name in Azure that is exclusively used for VPN and ExpressRoute virtual network gateways - Azure will not allow an Application Gateway to be deployed there. Based on the referenced table, Subnet1 and Subnet2 are general-purpose subnets without conflicting delegations or reservations, making them valid deployment targets for Application Gateway. Each Application Gateway deployment requires a dedicated subnet (no other resources can share it), but both Subnet1 and Subnet2 qualify structurally. This makes option C (Subnet1 or Subnet2 only) correct.
