The answer is A - Manage Patche

If you read further, under the Manage Patches section it states...

Checklist A. Manage Patches
Use this task checklist if your source material is on tape and/or
electronically downloaded files, you are
managing your patches, and you are using a tape to apply:
. PowerPatch patches
. Reactive patches
. PowerPatch and Reactive patches together
Print a copy of this checklist for each system that you are applying patches
to.

An update would move you from one version of MPE/iX to another (such as 7.0
to 7.5.)
