Best answer
Correct option is (b) Autoclave

The explanation is: An autoclave produces steam at high temperature and maintains great pressure to destroy the microbes. The autoclave does heat and steam treatment of the instruments at 134℃ for three minutes or at 121℃ for fifteen minutes. This high pressure and high heat treatment help destroy a number of microbes.
