Which peripheral is able to connect using the USB or Lightning port on a mobile device?

• A. Tethering
• B. NFC
• C. RFID
• D. USB Peripherals

Answer: (D)

The main idea is that USB or Lightning ports on mobile devices are meant for external devices that can plug in and exchange data or power. Devices designed to connect through these ports are USB peripherals. This category includes keyboards, mice, external storage, cameras, audio interfaces, and other accessory gear that attaches physically to the device to extend its capabilities.

Tethering describes sharing the device’s internet connection and isn’t itself a peripheral. NFC and RFID are wireless, short-range technologies used for contactless communication or tagging and don’t connect through a USB or Lightning port. So the option referring to USB peripherals best fits the idea of what can connect via those ports.
