Solution

The correct option is B Death cap mushroom
Amanita phalloides, the 'Death Cap' mushroom is the most poisonous mushroom. As little as 30 grams of it can result in death, and it can be hard to even diagnose patients properly in time. After consuming a death cap mushroom, a person will usually feel discomfort for 6-24 hours.
