Correct answer: D
Answer: Marble
Explanation: Three items in the list are stones used as gemstones or ornamental stones, while one is a building/sculptural rock.
Sapphire and Ruby: Precious gemstones (varieties of corundum) commonly used in jewelry.
Jasper: An opaque silica-based stone often classified as a semi-precious gemstone or ornamental stone.
Marble: A metamorphic rock made of calcite, typically used for sculpture and construction rather than as a gemstone.
Conclusion: Marble is the least like the others because it is a construction/sculptural rock, not a gemstone or ornamental gem.
