A)is generally more "scalable" than a three-tiered architecture
B)is generally less "scalable" than a three-tiered architecture
C)uses only two sets of computers in which the clients are responsible for the application and presentation logic, and the servers are responsible for the data
D)uses exactly three sets of computers in which the client is responsible for presentation, one set of servers is responsible for data access logic and data storage, and application logic is spread across two or more different sets of servers
