I have been asked this question at a job interview.

The doubt is from Intelligent Agents and Environment in division Intelligent Agents of Artificial Intelligence

Answer 1

The correct option is (b) Agent function

To explain I would say: An agent’s behavior is described by the agent function that maps any given percept sequence to an action, which can be implemented by agent program. The agent function is an abstract mathematical description; the agent program is a concrete implementation, running on the agent architecture.
