The correct answer is C) Islamic architecture.

The crescent moon in the finial at the top of the Taj Mahal is evidence of Islamic architectural influence.

This is a renown symbol of Islam. Indeed, the star and the crescent moon are the symbols that most identify Islam. They were first commonly used by the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century. When the Ottoman Empire ended, some Islamic countries adopted the symbol. It also can be seen in some major buildings as is the case of the Taj Mahal, in India.
