Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Demographics and geography are commonly used to identify and target customers, while lifestyle or benefit segmentation is used to design products and messages that appeal to them. Loyalty segmentation and geodemographics may also be used but are less commonly employed. Undifferentiated targeting is a single mass market approach and does not involve segmentation. Lifestyle segmentation and geographic segmentation may be used individually, but are not as effective as combining multiple segmentation methods.
