For bridges well foundations, piles and piers may use depending on site condition. But for sky scrapper building mostly pile foundations are used.

From the above options, I think option B is correct.

For skyscrapers pile foundation not only transfers the load to the hard stratum but also acts a batter for horizontal loads.
