Best answer
The correct option is (c) Tracer- tracer hybrid

Explanation: Our sequence of interest is present in the tracer. So if it hybridizes with a driver, it means that the sequence is present is it also and thus it is not required by us. Hence, either tracer-tracer hybrids or single stranded tracers are required.
