Remove-WindowsFeature cmdlet removes copmputer as a object from AD but it’s not uninstalling AD service from DC. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee617250.aspx
There is no Remove-WindowsFeature cmdlet in Windows Server 2012. It was replaced by Uninstall-WindowsFeature cmdlet https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee662310.aspx. Thus the right answer is B.

– Remove-ADComputer: removes a computer from a domain not removes AD from a computer
– Ntdsutil: removes metadata that remains when you remove AD from a computer
– Remove-WindowsFeature: Exists. May be an alias of Uninstall-WindowsFeature but exists (i tested).
The right answer is A. Tested.
