The correct answer is B. Appositive

Explanation:

In grammar, a noun phrase is a set of words that contain a noun and can have different functions as they can act as a subject or entity that performs the action; as a direct object or entity affected by the action; as an indirect object or the entity for or to whom the action is performed or as an appositive or words that describe or define a noun that is placed besides the appositive and which are often enclosed by commas. This implies in the case of the noun phrase "my best friends" this mainly acts as an appositive because the only function of this is to define or describe the noun Jayden and Malik, but this is not the agent of the sentence or is affected by the action.
