The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Dehumidification is the process of removing moisture from the air while keeping its dry bulb temperature unchanged.
This process reduces the air’s humidity level, making the environment more comfortable, especially in humid climates.
Dehumidifiers or air conditioners perform this by condensing water vapor onto a cold surface.
Humidification is the opposite — it adds moisture to the air.
Sensible cooling lowers air temperature without changing its moisture content.
Sensible heating raises temperature without changing humidity.
Therefore, removal of moisture alone is correctly called dehumidification.
