Correct answer: B
This series consists of two interleaved patterns. The terms at odd positions (1st, 3rd, etc.) increase by 1: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. The terms at even positions are consecutive odd numbers: 3, 5, 7... Since the question mark is at position 13 (odd), it follows the first pattern. The next number after 6 is 7.
