There seems to be some repetition in the provided options, but based on the information given, it can be inferred that the reconstruction plan of Radical Republicans differed from those of Lincoln and Johnson in the following ways:
1. They did not want the North to keep slaves. This is in contrast to Lincoln's plan, which initially aimed at preserving the Union and did not emphasize immediate emancipation, and Johnson's plan, which was considered lenient on the South and did not prioritize African American rights.
2. They were not as lenient toward the South compared to Lincoln and Johnson. While the options mention the Radical Republicans' leniency twice, this appears to be a mistake, and their approach was actually more stringent.
3. They supported Lincoln's 10-percent plan. The Radical Republicans did not support Lincoln's 10-percent plan. Instead, they proposed more radical measures, such as the Wade-Davis Bill, which required a majority of a Southern state's pre-war voters to take an oath of allegiance for re-admission to the Union.
In summary, the reconstruction plan of Radical Republicans differed from the plans of Lincoln and Johnson by opposing the preservation of slavery, advocating for a stricter approach towards the South, and not supporting Lincoln's 10-percent plan.
