Right choice is (a) Under low sustained stress, it is tendency of some materials to get deform slowly and permanently

Easy explanation: Creep is nothing but the tendency of some materials to get deform slowly and permanently under low but sustained stress. For most of materials used in aerospace, creep is a problem at elevated temperatures. Although some titanium, plastics will exhibit creep at room temperatures.
