Solution

The correct option is A Grasping
A prehensile tail is an adaptation for grasping and holding things. There are two types the fully prehensile that can be used to manipulate things for eating food on trees (eg: monkeys). If the prehensile tail do not meet this purpose it is partially prehensile (e.g., tree porcupines).
