The task asks us to identify the correct pronunciation of the given Hangul syllable shown in the image.
Option a. ro: This is the correct choice according to the provided answer key. The syllable depicted corresponds to the romanization 'ro' in standard Hangul pronunciation rules, where the initial consonant and vowel combine to produce an /ro/ sound.
Option b. ru: This would correspond to a syllable with a similar vowel sound but typically represented with a different vowel component in Hangul. Since the image corresponds to the specific vowel combination that yields 'ro' rather than 'ru', this is not the right pronunciation for the shown syllable.
Option c. nu: This pronunciation would arise from a different initial consonant-vowel pairing, producing a /nu/ sound. The visual shape of the syllable in the image does not align with the /nu/ sound, so this choice is incorrect for the given glyph.
Option d. no: This would produce a /no/ sound, which requires a vowel component or consonant arrangement distinct from what is shown. The syllable in the image does not produce the /no/ pronunciation, making this option inaccurate for the displayed character.
In summary, analyzing the syllable’s composition according to Hangul pronunciation rules leads to /ro/, matching option a. ro as the correct answer.
