Correct option is (c) RAKING bond

For explanation I would say: As the filling ofthicker WALL is done by headers only, such wall become weak in the longitudinal direction. The raking on inclined bonds are USED in such cases as remedial measures. The raking or INCLINATION should be in opposite direction in alternate COURSES of the Raking bond.
