Answer: C

Explanation:

The remote backend stores Terraform state and may be used to run operations in Terraform Cloud. When using full remote operations, operations like terraform plan or terraform apply can be executed in Terraform Cloud’s run environment, with log output streaming to the local terminal. Remote plans and applies use variable values from the associated Terraform Cloud workspace. https://www.terraform.io/docs/backends/types/remote.html
