Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Profile layout assignments controlling tab visibility.
Why it's wrong here

Role Hierarchies granting access to records owned by subordinates.
Why this is correct
Correct. Role hierarchies automatically extend record access up the management chain.

Why it's wrong here
