The correct answer is:  

Iamb.  

An iamb is a two-syllable metrical pattern used in poetry in which the first syllable is unstressed and the second syllable is stressed. “Attain,” and “define” show the iambic pattern of unstressed and stressed syllables. In English poetry, metrical patterns are called feet, so an iamb is a type of foot.
