A Correct answer
Explanation

When conflicting options are specified at the same hierarchical level, most systems follow 'last option wins' semantics - the option specified later takes precedence and overrides earlier ones. This is standard in configuration files, command-line arguments, and programming language option processing. Options specified first are overridden, not combined or ignored.
