Correct Answer: CTo make an application highly available, it's essential to distribute the resources across multiple Availability Zones within the same AWS Region. This ensures that the application can continue to operate even if one Availability Zone experiences an outage. Updating the Auto Scaling group to launch new instances in a second Availability Zone in the same AWS Region achieves this goal by providing redundancy and failover capability, thus maintaining high availability. Adjusting the number of instances, as stated in options A and B, only addresses capacity and does not provide the required high availability. Option D is incorrect because Auto Scaling groups are designed to operate within a single AWS Region, and using an Availability Zone in another AWS Region would not be feasible for this purpose.
