Solution

The correct option is D $- C H_{2} -$
A homologous series is a series of compounds in which each member differs from the next/previous by $- C H_{2} -$ or 14 mass units. Physical properties change in members of homologous series but chemical properties remain almost the same because the functional group remains the same.
