The correct answer is:
with constant acceleration
The force on a charged particle in an electric field is
Also,
$F=q E$
$F=m a$
$\Rightarrow \quad a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{q E}{m}$
As $q$ and $m$ are constant for a positively charged particle and the electric field is also uniform. So, the particle move with constant acceleration.
