Some Basic Principles of Organic Chemistry: JEE Main 2026 Chemistry question

Given below are two statements: Statement I: On the basis of inductive effect, the order of stability of alkyl carbanions is $\mathrm{CH_3^- > CH_3{-}CH_2^- > (CH_3)_2CH^- > (CH_3)_3C^-}$. Statement II: Allyl and benzyl carbanions are more stabilised by inductive effect and not by resonance effect. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
