To drop a column that is used as a foreign key, first:
Answer: C
Correct answer: drop the foreign key constraint.
The constraint is what prevents the column being removed, so it must be dropped first - a single ALTER TABLE ... DROP CONSTRAINT, after which the column itself can be dropped. Dropping the primary key of the referenced table or the whole table containing the foreign key would both be far more destructive than the change requires.
