Solution

The correct option is B Gerund
The underlined verb is a gerund because it functions as a noun apart from being structured as a verb. It is the object of the sentence. It does not function as an adjective and, thus, is not a participle. Thus, Option A is the correct answer. Options B,C and D are all incorrect.
