Answer: (A)

The pyramids of the sun and the moon belong to Teotihuacan, an ancient city in the Basin of Mexico near present-day Mexico City. Teotihuacan is famous for its monumental architecture along the Avenue of the Dead, including the Pyramid of the Sun—the largest structure in the city—and the Pyramid of the Moon at the northern end. This site flourished around the first centuries CE and had a profound influence on later Mesoamerican cultures. Chichen Itza is known for the Temple of Kukulcán in Yucatán, Monte Albán is a Zapotec center in Oaxaca, and Copán is a Maya site in Honduras.
