Best answer
Correct choice is (a) Microbes

Easiest explanation: Microbes use carbon source to grow degrading soil contaminants, chemicals don’t use carbon sources for growth as it isn’t a living entity, quorum quenching leads to inhibition of quorum sensing and lyophilization is a process of freeze drying.
