The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

The Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) or Air Quality Index (AQI) categorizes air quality levels based on pollutant concentrations. According to common standards: - 0–50: Good - 51–100: Moderate
- 101–199: Unhealthy
- 200–299: Very unhealthy
- 300 and above: Hazardous
Hence, a PSI value in the range of 101–199 indicates unhealthy air quality.
