The sentence states that seniority is the "governing factor" in layoffs, which suggests it is the primary or determining factor. It also states that seniority is "an important factor" in transfers and promotions, which again suggests that it is a significant consideration but not the only factor. Therefore, option B, "determining," is the best choice.
