The correct answer is Option (2) - The tenants lease their lands to landowners for cultivation.

• The term agrarian structure is used to refer to the structure of distribution of landholding: This statement is correct. It describes the system of how land ownership and control are distributed within a society.
• In raiyatwari system actual cultivators rather than the Zamindars were responsible for paying the tax: This statement is correct. The Raiyatwari system implemented by the British directly involved individual peasants paying land revenue to the British Crown, bypassing intermediaries like Zamindars.
• Under the British, the Zamindars were given more control over land than they had before: This statement is correct. The British formalized and strengthened the Zamindari system, granting Zamindars rights to collect revenue from peasants and essentially acting as intermediaries between the British and the agricultural sector.
• The tenants lease their lands to landowners for cultivation: This statement is incorrect. In a typical tenant-landlord relationship, it's the landowner who leases land to tenants for cultivation, not the other way around. Tenants are individuals who cultivate land owned by someone else, usually paying rent or a share of the produce in exchange for the right to use the land.
