Solution

The correct option is D X - Charaka Samhita Y - Sushruta Samhita
In earlier times, many people studied why people fell ill, how they can be cured, and how hurt can be healed. They collected herbs and other things to prepare medicines and wrote a book on medicines called Charaka Samhita. Another book which focusses on surgery is called Sushruta Samhita. These books laid the foundation of Ayurveda, the traditional Indian system of medicine and health.
