Correct answer
B. a nongovernment advisory frequency that can provide airport information such as wind and runway in use
Why
UNICOM is a nongovernment air-to-ground advisory service, often at non-towered airports, that can pass airport advisories and services information. It is not an ATC facility and does not issue clearances.
