Answer:

A, Malcolm may rescind the contract is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Residential land refers to any piece of land including any building used or intended only for family dwelling. On the other hand, industrial land is the one utilized in things related to manufacturing, processing or raw materials. Even though Stevens though it was true, Malcolm can claim that he wasn't told the correct information, and as long as he proves it, he may rescind the contract.
