Answer: The correct answer is "a) structural functionalist".

Explanation: Evan's perspective on stratification is most in line with theory of structural functionalist, because this theory establishes that inequalities are functional for society, and argues that the most difficult jobs in any society have the highest incomes, in order to motivate people to fill the necessary roles for the division of labor. Therefore inequality serves social stability.
