The character table for a pyramidal $\mathrm{AB}_{3}$ molecule of $\mathrm{C}_{3 \mathrm{v}}$ point group is given below:
$\mathrm{C}_{3 \mathrm{v}}$E$2 \mathrm{C}_{3}$$3 \sigma_{\mathrm{v}}$
$\mathrm{A}_{1}$111z$\mathrm{x}^{2}+\mathrm{y}^{2}, \mathrm{z}^{2}$
$\mathrm{A}_{2}$11-1$\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{z}}$
E2-10$(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})\left(\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{x}}, \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{y}}\right)$$\left(\mathrm{x}^{2}-\mathrm{y}^{2}, \mathrm{xy}\right)(\mathrm{xz}, \mathrm{yz})$
The reducible representation of pyramidal $\mathrm{AB}_{3}$ is
$\mathrm{C}_{3 \mathrm{v}}$E$2 \mathrm{C}_{3}$$3 \sigma_{\mathrm{v}}$

The CORRECT option representing all the normal Raman active modes of pyramidal $\mathrm{AB}_{3}$ is:
(a)$\mathrm{A}_{1}+\mathrm{A}_{2}+2 \mathrm{E}$
(b)$2 \mathrm{A}_{1}+2 \mathrm{E}$
(c)$3 \mathrm{A}_{1}+\mathrm{A}_{2}+\mathrm{E}$
(d)3E
