The second and third row elements of transition metals resemble each other much more than they resemble the first row because of
  1. lanthanoid contraction which results in almost same radii of second and third row metals
  2. diagonal relationship between second and third row elements
  3. similar ionisation enthalpy of second and third row elements
  4. similar oxidation states of second and third row metals.

Answer

(A) lanthanoid contraction which results in almost same radii of second and third row metals
