B Correct answer
Explanation

Transfer Objects (also called Value Objects) are used to transfer data across tiers. While they often implement Serializable for network transmission in Java EE environments, it's not strictly mandatory. Other serialization mechanisms (XML, JSON, custom protocols) can be used. The interface is a practical requirement for RMI/IIOP but not a theoretical necessity for the pattern itself.
