Explanation

Option C correctly reflects the SOA hierarchy: a service can participate in a service composition (a coordinated grouping of services fulfilling a broader task), and that composition is assembled from services drawn from a service inventory (the governed collection of available services). Option A fails because "component," "object," and "enterprises" are not standard SOA terms - they mix OOP vocabulary into the wrong context. Option B inverts the hierarchy by placing "service inventory" inside a "service," when in reality inventories contain services, not the other way around; "enterprises" also doesn't name a valid SOA container. Option D makes the same inversion error - a service inventory is broader than a service and cannot be part of one - and "enterprise" alone is too vague to describe a service collection.

Memory tip: Think of Russian nesting dolls from smallest to largest - service → service composition → service inventory - and the blank-fill order in option C follows that same inside-out direction.
