B Correct answer
Explanation

Downtime refers to the actual duration a system or service is unavailable or non-operational after a disaster, which is precisely what RTO (Recovery Time Objective) measures - the target time to restore services. RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is about acceptable data loss measured in time, not downtime duration.
