Answer: (D)

Movement and Maneuver focuses on how forces are moved and positioned on the battlefield to gain an advantage. It covers planning and executing moves, maneuvering units to fix or outflank the enemy, and shaping the battlespace to achieve decisive results. The reason this is the best answer is that the function’s name directly describes its purpose—to move and maneuver forces.
