B Correct answer
Explanation

Assemblies are made universally visible by signing them with a strong-named key (snk file) and installing them into the Global Assembly Cache (GAC). The GAC is a machine-wide cache for assemblies, and strong naming provides uniqueness and versioning. Windows Registry, System folders, and environment variables are not the correct mechanism.
