Why each option
Validate Scope is the process that formally accepts completed deliverables by obtaining stakeholder sign-off on verified deliverables. Control Quality produces verified deliverables, which then feed into Validate Scope.
Control Quality inspects deliverables against quality requirements and produces verified deliverables, which are the input to Validate Scope - not the accepted deliverables that result from it.
Validate Scope is the process of formalizing acceptance of completed project deliverables. Its inputs include verified deliverables (produced by Control Quality), and its primary output is accepted deliverables with formal sign-off from the customer or sponsor. The scenario matches this exactly - the stakeholder reviewed verified deliverables and produced a list of accepted deliverables.
Validate Quality is not a standard process in the PMBOK Guide; there is no process by this name.
Control Scope monitors project and product scope status, manages scope baseline changes, and produces change requests - it does not formally accept deliverables.
