C Correct answer
Explanation

WebSphere Interchange Server V4.2.2 applications can be migrated to WebSphere Process Server V6.1, but not through direct export or automatic upgrade. The migration path requires running Interchange Server artifacts through conversion wizards that transform them into equivalent WebSphere Process Server artifacts. This process handles the architectural differences between the two platforms. A direct upgrade or EAR export approach will not work.
