Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

The application registration defines the app, and a service principal represents it in a tenant.

The application registration defines identity and configuration, while service principals provide tenant-specific application representations. Registrations are not necessarily human users, and the two concepts are not one universal cross-tenant object. Neither is a subscription or an individual access token.
