In the following benzyl/allyl system (R is alkyl group) decreasing order of inductive effect is

Answer
A
Explanation

The methyl group 3 CH pushes its bonded electrons and shows a positive inductive effect. With increasing the number of the methyl group, the inductive effect increases. Therefore, considering the number of the methyl group, the decreasing order of the inductive effect is, 3 3 3 2 3 2 CH C CH CH CH CH
