Answer:
Answer A : Fusion followed by beta decay (electron emission)
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that you want the Atomic number to increase, that is the number of protons in a nucleus. So if all four cases given experience the same fusion of nuclei, the only one that net increases the number of protons in the last stage, is the reaction that undergoes a beta decay (with emission of an electron) thus leaving a positive imbalance of positive charge (proton generated in the beta decay of a neutron).
Therefore, answer A is the correct one.
