Why each option

TOGAF Building Blocks are designed such that their specifications should be loosely coupled to specific implementations, allowing for flexibility and reuse across various solutions.

AA good Building Block should not be composed of other Building Blocks

Building Blocks can and often should be composed of other Building Blocks to manage complexity and promote reusability in a hierarchical manner.

BArchitecture Building Blocks should be first selected in Phase D

Architecture Building Blocks are identified and refined throughout various phases of the ADM, starting from early conceptualization, not solely first selected in Phase D.

CBuilding Block specifications should be loosely coupled to implementationCorrect

TOGAF specifies that Building Block specifications should be loosely coupled to implementation details, meaning they define required functionality and interfaces without dictating precise technological choices. This enables greater flexibility, allowing different solution implementations to conform to the same architecture Building Block specification.

DCustom developments are known as Architecture Building Blocks

Custom developments are generally considered Solution Building Blocks (SBBs) as they are specific implementations, whereas Architecture Building Blocks (ABBs) are logical components describing required capabilities.
