Best answer
The correct answer is (a) Thermistors

For explanation I would say: Thermistors are used in calorimetric biosensor to measure the heat generated during the reaction. Hence it is not an ion-selective electrode. Glass electrodes, glass pH electrodes and solid-state electrodes are types ion-selective electrodes that are used in the potentiometric biosensor.
