Solution

The correct option is A Solute - salt; Solvent - water

In a solution, the substance which is dissolved is called a solute and the substance in which the solute is dissolved is called a solvent. To obtain salt solution, salt is mixed in water and hence salt is the solute and water is the solvent.
