The four components of a time series are seasonal, cycle, irregular, and trend. Option D lists these components in the correct order. Option A lists day as a component, which does not apply to a typical time series as it would be too fine-grained. Option B lists "seasonal" and "season" separately, which may be confusing. Option C has "regular" as a component, which is not one of the standard components of a time series.
