      I think it’s A and I would like to know if I’m wrong.

      https://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/library/cc771898.aspx

      When a zone that this DNS server hosts is a secondary zone, this DNS server is a secondary source for information about this zone.

      The zone at this server must be obtained from another remote DNS server computer that also hosts the zone.

      This DNS server must have network access to the remote DNS server that supplies this server with updated information about the zone. Because a secondary zone is merely a copy of a primary zone that is hosted on another server, it cannot be stored in AD DS.

      To Leg01:
      It would be part of the domain because server1 is the primary for contoso.com and server2 needs to host secondary for contoso.com as well.

    The Answer is A. go to your lab and open the properties for one of your Zones. There is a Name Servers Tab that is one of the ways to set up zone transfers for a Secondary Zone. Since there are no other valid answers, A is the one we should pick.

    In order for B to happen, both servers would need to be Domain Controllers.
