Answer:

Some sounds are in contrastive distribution and others in complementary distribution.

Explanation:

The sounds [k] and [x] are contrastive,

[kano] 'do'

[xano] 'lose'

The sounds [ç] and [c] are contrastive,

[çino] 'pour'

[cino] 'move'

The sounds [k] and [c] are in complementary distribution. The palatal stop appears before front vowels, whereas the velar stop appears elsewhere. The sounds [ç] and [x] are in complementary distribution, like the stops, palatal before front vowels, but otherwise velar.

BaLLatris [955]
I would definitely go with B because a subjunctive is an realist mood (one that does not refer directly to what is necessarily real) – it is often contrasted with the indicative, which is a realist mood. Subjunctives occur most often, although not exclusively, in subordinate clauses, particularly that-clauses.
