The right answer avoids a brittle workaround. Lightning App Builder controls page composition, component visibility, activation, assignments, and specialized surfaces such as record pages, home pages, and utility bars.
The best answer is A. Form factor checkboxes.
A clean Platform App Builder answer should satisfy the complete scenario, not merely one phrase in it. This item requires the app builder to choose the configuration that produces the requested behavior in normal Salesforce use. The selected answer fits that requirement because it works with the platform model instead of fighting it.
None of the other options gives the same administrative control. B (Highlights panel) is only a partial match because it does not provide the same direct administrative control as the selected option. C (Related list quick links) misses the mark because it addresses a neighboring feature area rather than the exact behavior requested. D (Component visibility filter) is not enough: A Lightning component changes the interface; it does not automatically solve security, relationship, or data-quality requirements. This is the stronger design because it respects security, data quality, user experience, and lifecycle management at the same time.
For Lightning pages, activation and assignment determine who sees the page. Component visibility then controls whether a specific component appears for a given condition.
