Answer
Correct option: D.
$\ce{C, P}$
In addition to horizontal and vertical trends, there is a diagonal relationship between elements such as $\ce{Li}$ and $\ce{Mg, Be}$ and $\ce{Al, B}$ and $\ce{Si}$.
A diagonal relationship is said to exist between certain pairs of diagonally adjacent elements in the second and third periods of the periodic table.
