235. Actinoids in general show more oxidation states than the lanthanoids. The main reason for this is

A higher energy difference between $$5f$$  and $$6d$$  orbitals than between $$4f$$  and $$5d$$  orbitals
B lower energy difference between $$5f$$  and $$6d$$  orbitals than between $$4f$$  and $$5d$$  orbitals
C higher reactivity of actinoids than lanthanoids
D actinoids are more basic than lanthanoids
Answer :   lower energy difference between $$5f$$  and $$6d$$  orbitals than between $$4f$$  and $$5d$$  orbitals
