The correct options are
B Pu

Actinoids have a much better range in terms of the number of oxidation states. $P u$ and $N p$ exhibit up to +7.

When compared to lanthanoids, the actinoids are so they have their outermost shell further away from the nucleus.
This makes it possible for the actinoids to show a wider variety of oxidation states in general.
