Situational irony, from the term itself, presents an ironic effect between the events that happened within the story. Based on "The Metamorphosis", the ones that display this kind of irony are options A and B. Gregor's father uses an apple to wound him but this lead to his death instead. And, the external "blossoming" of Grete happened as she deteriorates internally.
