- A. Declarative
- B. Imperative

Explanation
The sentence has a command/ request (the phrase 'please tell' is used) and ends with a period, hence is an imperative sentence. It is not declarative as it does not express strong emotion and no information is stated. It is not interrogative as no questions are asked in the sentence, and is not exclamatory as no strong feelings/ emotions are expressed.
