The correct answer is "D".

Cabinet members are designated by the President once he or she assumes office. The length of their tenure depends exclusively on the President's will.

The cabinet ceases all functions once a President's mandate comes to an end. It is up to the new President to designate the citizens that will occupy the positions for his cabinet. However, the new President may call a citizen currently occupying a position in the cabinet to remain under his or her tenure.
