B Correct answer
Explanation

Identification, Environment, Data, Procedure is correct because these are the four mandatory divisions in every COBOL program. The Identification Division identifies the program, Environment Division describes hardware, Data Division defines variables and files, and Procedure Division contains the executable logic. Working Storage is a section within Data Division, not a division itself.
