Answer:

D. F(G(H(x))) depends on G(H(x))

Explanation:

A function depends on its argument (the stuff in parentheses after the function name). The argument of function F in F(G(H(x))) is G(H(x)).

F(G(H(x))) depends on G(H(x))

__

Answer choices A and C do not make any statement about the given composition. Answer choice B shows a composition (H(G(x))) that has no relation to the argument of function F.
