A) Internal taper is the right answer.

The spindle is hollow and has an internal Morse taper at the nose end, which makes possible the use of taper shank drills or drill chucks. This internal taper is also used to hold live centers, drive centers, or collet assemblies. The outside of the spindle nose can have either a threaded, a long taper with key drive, or a camlock.
