Solution

The correct option is A lower
In FM modulation, information (signal) is contained in the side bands, so that signals on the adjacent bands don't interfere, for that carrier waves of higher frequency are used as compared to AM modulation.
In AM the carrier frequency range is 5351605kHz,
In FM the carrier frequency range is 88108MHz.
