Solution

The correct option is B Rectangle

ABCD is a parallelogram
AE bisects BAD
BF bisects ABC
CG bisects BCD
DH bisects ADC
BAD+ABC=180o (because adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary)
BAJ=12BAD because AE bisects BAD
ABJ=12ABC because DH bisects ABC
BAJ + ABJ = 90o [ halves of supplemetary angles are complementary]
ABJ is a right triangle because its acute interior angles are complementary with J=90o
Similarly, K=L=I=90o

In quadrilateral IJLK, since all angles are 90o, it must be a rectangle.
Therefore, internal angle bisectors of a parallelogram forms a rectangle.
