B Correct answer
Explanation

SOA primarily enables internal service-to-service communication and composition within an enterprise. While services can be exposed externally, the statement that SOA's purpose is exposing components to the external world oversimplifies - SOA is about internal architectural structure.

AI explanation

In Service-Oriented Architecture the correct terminology is that SOA exposes the functionality of SERVICES (not Components) to the external world. Components are internal implementation/building blocks; they are wrapped and published as services, and it is those services — with well-defined contracts/interfaces — that are exposed externally. The statement as written substitutes 'Components' for 'Services', which is the standard distractor for this classic true/false item, so the statement is False. The marked answer (False) is correct.
