Suddenly, she wondered which type of settlement this was?

Help her identify the type of settlement.

The correct option is D Cruciform

Cruciform settlements spring up on the crossroads and extend in all four directions. T-shaped settlements develop at tri-junction of roads. Y-shaped settlements develop at Y-junction of roads. In triangular-shaped settlements, houses are set up on triangular-shaped landforms.
