Correct answer: B

Key steps:

  • Take the word without the space: REPOLYMERIZATION (16 letters).

  • Reverse the first eight letters REPOLYME → EMYLOPER, and reverse the last four letters TION → NOIT. Keep the middle four letters RIZA unchanged.

  • Concatenate: EMYLOPER + RIZA + NOIT = EMYLOPERRIZANOIT.

  • Remove all vowels (A, E, I, O, U): from EMYLOPERRIZANOIT remove E, O, E, I, A, O, I to get the consonant sequence M Y L P R R Z N T.

  • Count the fifth letter from the end in M Y L P R R Z N T: T(1), N(2), Z(3), R(4), R(5). Thus the required letter is R.
