D Correct answer
Explanation

Named ACLs allow you to edit the access list by inserting or deleting individual statements anywhere in the list without removing and recreating the entire ACL. Numbered ACLs only allow you to add new statements at the end and require complete removal to make changes in the middle. All the other capabilities listed (filtering by protocol, protocol suite, addresses) are available in both numbered and named ACLs.
