A

Highest power of xxx, followed by xn−1x^{n-1}xn−1, xn−2x^{n-2}xn−2, xn−3x^{n-3}xn−3, etc.

B

x1x^1x1, followed by x2x^2x2, x3x^3x3, x4x^4x4, etc., then the constant term (x0x^0x0).

C

Constant term (x0x^0x0), followed by x2x^2x2, x4x^4x4, x6x^6x6, etc.

D

Constant term (x0x^0x0), followed by x1x^1x1, x2x^2x2, x3x^3x3, etc.
