Best answer
The correct option is (c) Haptens

Explanation: Haptens are the substances which are immunogens but do not generate an immune response and are not immunogenic. If haptens are bound to any larger molecule like Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), it will lead to the formation of protein-carrier complex. This complex is immunogenic in nature and thus generates an immune response.
