Solution

The correct option is D By examining it carefully and noticing its details
The author convinced himself that the footprint is a real one by examining it carefully and noticing its details. The answer can be taken from this line ‘..there were any more, and to observe if it might not be my fancy; but there was no room for that, for there was exactly the very print of a foot toes, heel and every part of a foot..’
