  1. A
    commiting
  2. B
    comitting
  3. C
    comiting
  4. D
    committing

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The correct option is D.
The correctly spelt word is Committing.
According to the rules of English spelling, when a multi-syllable word ends in a consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) structure and the final syllable is stressed (com-MIT), you double the final consonant before adding a suffix starting with a vowel (-ing). Hence, double 'm' and double 't' are used: C-o-m-m-i-t-t-i-n-g.
