The correct option is C. Anapestic .

Anapestic tetrameter is a poetic meter that has four anapestic metrical feet per line. Each foot has two unstressed syllables followed by a stressed syllable.

iThe pattern would be: unstressed + unstressed syllable+ stressed syllable. un-der-STAND he's the ONE in the CHOIR.

Anapestic tetrameter is a rhythm implemented for comic verse. Anapestic tetrameter is often highly regular.
