The correct Answer is:
B
The final Ozonolysis product indicates that the alkene before ozonolysis is

Oxymercuration - demercuration hydration indicates that it is an alkyne. An alkyne on hydration gives a carbonyl compound which on reduction with NaBH4 gives 20alcohol, which under goes elimination to form an alkene according to Saytzeff.s rule via carbocation mechanism.
