Solution

The correct option is A $(H O O C) C H_{2} C (C O O H) (O H) C H_{2} (C O O H)$
$2 - H y d r o x y - 1, 2, 3 - p r o p a n e t r i c a r b o x y l i c a c i d$
The name suggests functional groups are - three Carboxylic Acid (main) and one Alcohol (secondary) at position C-2, with 3 carbons in main chain.
The condensed formula is $(H O O C) C H_{2} C (C O O H) (O H) C H_{2} (C O O H)$
