Right answer is (c) Gel filtration

To explain: The liquid chromatographic method of separating solute molecules according to differences in molecular size is referred to as gel filtration. TLC is a type of chromatography wherein the stationary phase is immobilized on a glass or plastic plate and organic solvent acts as the mobile phase. Ion-exchange and affinity chromatography are used in enzyme preparation according to the property of the enzyme.
