B Correct answer
Explanation

Babur wrote the Baburnama (his memoir in Chagatai Turkic) and Jahangir wrote the Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri (his autobiography in Persian). Both are valuable historical sources. Humayun did not write a memoir, and Akbar's chronicle (Ain-i-Akbari) was written by Abul Fazl, not by Akbar himself.
