Solution

The correct option is A Hallucinogenic
LSD or lysergic acid diethylamide is an extract of ergot of fungus Claviceps purpurea. It is a powerful hallucinogen and can cause hallucinations, perceptual anomalies, and other substantial subjective changes in thoughts, emotions, and consciousness.
A sedative or tranquilliser is a substance that induces sedation by reducing irritability or excitement.
Stimulant is an overarching term that covers many drugs including those that increase the activity of the body, drugs that are pleasurable and invigorating, or drugs that have sympathomimetic effects.
