AI Explanation

To answer this question, we need to have knowledge about the characters and relationships mentioned in the epic Ramayana.

Option A) The mother of Ravana - This option is correct. According to Ramayana, Kaikasi is indeed the mother of Ravana, who is one of the main antagonists in the story.
