If the AP is using encryption, then the _____ subfield will be set to 1 in the AP's response.
Encryption
Privacy
None of these
Confidentiality
In case AP uses encryption, it will set the privacy bit to 1. <- EDIT: I cannot find this anywhere. I was able to find:
"APs set the Privacy subfield to 1 within transmitted Beacon, Probe Response, Association Response, and Reassociation Response management frames if data confidentiality is required for all data frames exchanged within the BSS. If data confidentiality is not required, the Privacy subfield is set to 0."
With regard to encryption:
"STAs within an ESS set the Privacy subfield to 1 in DLS Request and DLS Response frames if encryption is required for all data frames exchanged. If encryption is not required, the Privacy subfield is set to 0."

Changing answer to correct distractor : "none of these".
EDIT: Not correct to change the answer to 'none of these' just because the wording of the question is slightly incorrect (might as well just remove the entire Q). So changed the "bit" in question to "subfield" and reverted the correct answer back to 'Privacy', otherwise you had a Q&A that were entirely incongruent
