A. B. C. D.C.
The correct answer is C. The field-level security overrides the search layout and the field will be hidden for those users.
Explanation:
Salesforce provides different levels of access control to ensure the security of data. One of these levels is field-level security, which controls who can view and edit specific fields on an object.
If a field is visible in the search layout, it means that the field is included in the list of searchable fields that are displayed when users perform a search. However, if the field-level security settings of that field are configured to hide it from certain users, then those users will not be able to see the field even if it appears in the search layout.
In other words, the field-level security settings override the search layout for those users, and the field will be hidden from them. This is because field-level security is a more restrictive access control than the search layout.
Therefore, option C is the correct answer: "The field-level security overrides the search layout and the field will be hidden for those users."
