    Which of the following correctly explains the observed trend in atomic radii down Group 13 (Boron Family) considering the influence of d- and f-block electron filling in subsequent periods?

    A

    Atomic radii consistently increase from B to Tl due to the increasing number of electron shells.

    B

    Ga has a significantly smaller radius than Al due to the lanthanide contraction.

    C

    Tl has a larger radius than In, but the increase is smaller than expected due to the d-block contraction.

    D

    While the general trend is an increase in radius down the group, Ga experiences a smaller than expected increase in radius compared to Al due to the poor shielding effect of the 3d electrons, while Tl exhibits a smaller than expected increase compared to In due to the poor shielding of both the 4f and 5d electrons.
