Answer»

Correct option is (a) Tapered wing

For explanation I would say: Tapered wings have finite value of taper RATIO. In taper wing root and tip chord will have different values of chord. ELLIPTIC wings are of elliptic shape. RECTANGULAR wing has taper ratio of unity which shows a rectangular profile.
