In the troposphere, the variation of temperature with altitude is given by the equation
T = T0 " λ h.
Where T0 is the sea level temperature, T is the temperature at the altitude h and λ is the temperature lapse rate in the troposphere.
λ = 0.0065 K/m in the troposphere.
T = T0 " λ h.
Where T0 is the sea level temperature, T is the temperature at the altitude h and λ is the temperature lapse rate in the troposphere.
λ = 0.0065 K/m in the troposphere.

@Abhishek Kumar
You say temperature lapse rate in troposphere is 0.0065.
K/m, here its unit in K( kelvin ) and in question unit is in C (Celcius).

It was not in k/m, it was c/km.
So, it was converted to metre. That's why we get it as 0.0065 celsius/metre.

On which basis, we can decide between Option-A and Option-D?
How is the height factor decided?

In troposphere according to lapse rate as increase in altitude of 1km 6.5 c temp decreases.

With the increase in height from the sea level in troposphere, the temperature decreases.

I think it's based on lapse rate, 6.5 degree c per 1 km.
