For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

Mapping the Data Source Object (DSO) fields to the Data Model Object (DMO)
Why this is correct
Data streaming creates the DSO, but data does not populate the DMO until mapping is completed.

Why it's wrong here
Activation is for egress, not internal data flow between DSO and DMO.
