Solution

The correct option is C Kidney preserved for 12 hrs transplanted
The correct headline is Option D. It is precise and provides accurate information about the event in the appropriate format. Options A and C are incorrect due to the inclusion of a 'be verb', 'was', in different places of the headline. Option B is incorrect because of the wrong tense of the verb. In a headline a past perfect tense is written as simple past.
