Solution

The correct option is D Tectona grandis
Teak is a tropical hardwood tree of species Tectona grandis. The species is placed in the family Lamiaceae. It is a large, deciduous tree that is dominant in mixed hardwood forests. Teak wood is one of the most durable and stable hardwoods in the world. Thus, option D is correct.
Cedrus deodara (devadaru), Dalbergia sissoo (Indian rose wood) and Shorea robusta (sal tree) are no so much durable as teak. Thus, other options are wrong.
