Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Humayun.

The eldest of the four sons of Babur was Humayun. Born in 1508, Humayun succeeded his father, Babur, as the second emperor of the Mughal Empire in 1530. Despite facing numerous challenges, including battles with Afghan and Rajput rulers and internal family conflicts, Humayun managed to hold the empire together. His reign was marked by a brief loss of power, but he eventually regained the throne before his death in 1556, paving the way for his son Akbar's illustrious reign.
