The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Each option is a 3 x 3 grid with some cells hatched.
Option (1): the four corner cells are hatched, so the figure is symmetric about both the vertical and the horizontal centre lines.
Option (2): the top-middle and bottom-middle cells are hatched, so the figure is symmetric about both centre lines.
Option (3): only the central cell is hatched, so the figure is symmetric about both centre lines.
Option (4): the top-left, centre and bottom-left cells are hatched. It is symmetric about the horizontal centre line but not about the vertical one (the left column is hatched while the right column is not).
Hence option (4) is the odd one out.
Answer: (4) the grid with the top-left, centre and bottom-left cells hatched
