B Correct answer
Explanation

An asynchronous queue does NOT wait for a response - it allows non-blocking communication where the sender continues processing without waiting for the receiver's acknowledgment. Synchronous queues wait for responses.

AI explanation

An asynchronous queue lets the sender continue processing without waiting for a response — messages are placed on the queue and handled independently, decoupling sender and receiver in time. Waiting for a response describes synchronous (blocking) communication, which is the opposite of what "asynchronous" means here.
