正解: B) recognition
'In recognition of' is a set phrase meaning 'in acknowledgment of', and the noun 'recognition' is correct. The slot between the prepositions 'in' and 'of' is a noun position. 'Recognize' is a verb, 'recognizable' is an adjective (able to be recognized), and 'recognized' is a past participle.
