Hofstede's five dimensions are power distance, individualism versus collectivism, uncertainty avoidance, masculinity versus femininity, and long-term versus short-term orientation. Option D correctly identifies all five dimensions. Option A includes "tolerant versus intolerant and aggressive verses passive," which are not part of Hofstede's five dimensions. Option B includes "forward versus reserved," which is not one of Hofstede's dimensions. Option C includes "aggressive verses passive" and "tolerant versus intolerant," which are not part of Hofstede's dimensions, and adds "high-context verses low-context," which is not one of the five dimensions either.
