Best answer
Right option is (d) Phytoremediation

The best I can explain: Phytoremediation is a method not a populace, also, used to degrade pesticides in the environment using plants, so, they are definitely not affected by heavy metals that would lead to their reduction in the environment. Whereas, cyanobacteria, algae and protozoan are found to be affected by heavy metals in the environment.
