Answer is A and D…NSX support Horizon view 5.3 and above..check http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/sim/interop_matrix.php

A,C and D are correct in fact per matrix

Lets go:
D) Horizon View 5.2 is not supportet: http://partnerweb.vmware.com/comp_guide2/sim/interop_matrix.php?type=0&empty=1&solution=93&platform=VMware%20Horizon%20View&version=0&selectedProducts=113,112,185,298,417,472,150,297,329,377,418,473,328,474,635,710,726,866,902,454,730,823,729,872,868
A) vCenter 5.5 is a requirement: https://pubs.vmware.com/NSX-6/index.jsp#com.vmware.nsx.install.doc/GUID-311BBB9F-32CC-4633-9F91-26A39296381A.html
–> BUT: http://partnerweb.vmware.com/comp_guide2/sim/interop_matrix.php?type=0&empty=0&solution=93&platform=VMware%20vCenter%20Server&version=0&selectedProducts=34,35,36,37,173,242,38,172,194,363,140,252,392,462,254,448,444,442,508,578,611,792,431,695,114,701,597,575,700,739,407,445,519,634,663,113,112,185,298,417,472,150,297,329,377,418,473,328,474,635,710,726,866,902,454,730,823,729,872,868
Here I found, that NSX 6.1.5 is compatible with VMware vCenter Server 5.1 U3. Strange Uhh?
B) not true
c) not true at all. https://pubs.vmware.com/NSX-6/index.jsp#com.vmware.nsx.install.doc/GUID-311BBB9F-32CC-4633-9F91-26A39296381A.html
“VMware ESX 5.0 or later for each server” –> Thats not the same as “5.1” – maybe a little struggle about that type of question.
–> BUT: Found nothing about “4.1”, as here: http://partnerweb.vmware.com/comp_guide2/sim/interop_matrix.php?type=0&empty=1&solution=93&platform=VMware%20ESX/ESXi&version=0&selectedProducts=181,14,15,16,17,96,243,18,174,193,364,141,251,391,500,253,441,559,796,507,577,620,795,430,694
–> So I assume A+D, as C is not absolutely right.

I agree with A,C, and D as the correct answers.

The question is “successfully deploy NSX” no whether you can use NSX on those components or not. In my view to successfully deploay NSX, you need to ensure both vcenter is 5.5 and ESXi versions is 5.1 and above. ESXi at 4.1 will not ensure successful NSX deployment.
So its A & C
From the link below:
https://pubs.vmware.com/NSX-6/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.nsx.install.doc%2FGUID-311BBB9F-32CC-4633-9F91-26A39296381A.html
These are the minimum required versions of VMware products.
* VMware vCenter Server 5.5 or later
* VMware ESX 5.0 or later for each server
