Which of the following answer figure patterns can be combined to make the question figure?

Let's count the total number of single unit grid squares contained in the master question figure to determine the threshold:
* Top horizontal-ish rows and vertical hanging blocks contain exactly 17 unit squares.

Now let's check the total unit square counts of the individual fragments given in the options:

* In Option A, the sum of squares across the 4 fragmented pieces is: $4+5+4+4=17$ unit squares.
* Let's visually check the assembly fit of Option A:
1. The first piece (horizontal line of 4 with one hanging on the bottom-right) perfectly forms the top-left outer boundary.
2. The second piece (an inverted T-like shape of 5 squares) slots right into the middle vertical core.
3. The third and fourth pieces assemble seamlessly to fill out the remaining right-hand stepped segments.

Therefore, the fragments in option A can be successfully combined without overlap to replicate the question figure perfectly.
