B Correct answer
Explanation

DB2 locking mechanisms can lock tables, rows, and other database objects at various granularities. Buffer pools are memory cache areas used for data page storage and are not database objects that can be locked - locking applies to logical data structures (tables, rows), not memory management structures.
