Answer:
D) object of a preposition
Explanation:
"Maria" is functioning as the object of the preposition “to" in this sentence.
In this sentence a noun functions as the object of a preposition by coming after a preposition.
By definition of what an object of a preposition is, it is any noun that comes right after a preposition.
I believe that your answer is the first option due to how late the crying is, and unlike in "The Tell-Tale Heart" where the heart is constant and represents the slow descent of madness, the cry of the cat only appears at the end.
