Solution

The correct option is A I have put away all the laundry this morning.

Option A
is the correct option. The present perfect sentence is incorrect since this tense cannot be used when you are being specific about when the action happened. Option A specifies that the action was performed in the morning. (We are required to choose the option with an incorrect sentence.)

Option B and C are incorrect, that is, they are present perfect sentences since they follow the construction have/has + past participle and also describe an action that occurred at an unknown time in the past.

Option D is also incorrect, because it's in the present perfect tense as it follows the same construction and also refers to an action that started at an unknown time in the past and is still happening, or has just been completed.
