The electronic configuration of the elements is 
1s22s22p63s23p64s23d5
Since the last electron is entering the d- subshell, the element belongs to the d block. 

The highest principle quantum number in which the electron is present is 4, hence the period of the element is 4. 

Since the element belongs to the d block, the group number is equal to the sum of the number of electrons in (n-1)d and ns orbitals which is 5 + 2 = 7. 

Hence, Opt(A) is correct
