Makes sense. They do use Alice's public key during key exchange, though.

I read somewhere that DH generates a shared secret or session key, so C seems right.

Maybe, but wasn't it something about Alice's keys too? A) Alice Public Key?

I think the answer is C) The Session Key. They use that for encryption.
