Case 1: Consider m=2, thus, A= 2 and B=8, B is greater
Case 2: Consider m= -2, thus, A=-2 and B=-8, A is greater.
Hence, D is correct option.
Case 2: Consider m= -2, thus, A=-2 and B=-8, A is greater.
Hence, D is correct option.

if m=1, quantity A =-1 , quantity B = -1, [since odd power of negative number is negative].
if m= 2 quantity A = 2, Quantity B= 8
Hence answer D
if m= 2 quantity A = 2, Quantity B= 8
Hence answer D
