By levelling a DFD we mean:
A
splitting it into different levels
B
make its structure uniform
C
expanding a process into one with more sub-processes giving more detail
D
summarizing a DFD to specify only the essentials
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The level 4 DFD is an expansion of the process in the level 3 DFDs. And the level 5 DFD is an expansion of the process in the level 4 DFD etc. Levels stop when the analyst feels enough detail has been reached. All processes may require different levels of abstraction.

Detailed explanation-2: -Structure chart is a chart derived from Data Flow Diagram. It represents the system in more detail than DFD. It breaks down the entire system into lowest functional modules, describes functions and sub-functions of each module of the system to a greater detail than DFD.

Detailed explanation-3: -In a data flow diagram Functional primitive process is at the most detailed level.
