Solution
The correct option is A Cyclopropane, Cyclobutane
3-Membered and 4-membered cycloalkane rings are the least stable containing angle strain(due to large deviation from tetrahedral angle) as well as torsional strain (due to electronic repulsions between the bonds), lying close to each other.
