The correct option is C $4$
The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable.

The polynomial here is $4 x^{4} - 3 x^{2} + x + 6$ .

Now, the exponent of the variable $x$ in the term $4 x^{4}$ is $4$ , which is the highest in the given polynomial.

Hence, the degree of the polynomial is $4$ .
