Solution

The correct option is A Both are temples carved from single rock
The temples constructed in Mahabalipuram during the reign of the Pallava king Narasimhavarman are collectively known as Pancharathas. Each temple here is carved out of a single rock. Such rock cut temples were built in several parts of India. The cave temples of Ellora in Maharashtra were built in this style.
