Solution

The correct option is B $B H_{3}, T H F / N a O H, H_{2} O_{2}$
Alkaline permanganate and osmium tetrahydroxide introduces vicinal dihydroxy groups.
Ozone breaks the double bond.
Hydroboration-oxidation reaction gives an anti-Markovnikov addition product giving specifically a primary alcohol.
Hence, option (b) is the correct answer.
