Solution

The correct option is A high temperature and high pressure
Since ice melts with the absorption of heat and decreases in volume, hence both temperature and pressure affect the melting of ice. Since the change of ice into water is an endothermic process hence with rising of temperature ice melts into water. Since the volume of ice is more than that of water so an increase of pressure favour melting.
