Solution

The correct option is D Salt- Solute
Water- Solvent
In a solution the substance that gets dissolved is called a solute. Whereas, the substance in which the solute gets dissolved is called a solvent. The solute is present in less proportion and the solvent is present in more proportion.

Here, salt is getting dissolved in water. So, the salt is a solute while water is a solvent.
