Solution

The correct option is A Eugenics
Eugenics is the belief and practice which aims at improving the genetic quality of the human population. It is a social philosophy advocating the improvement of human genetic traits through the promotion of higher reproduction of people with desired traits (positive eugenics) and reduced reproduction of people with less-desired or undesired traits (negative eugenics). So, study of correction in human race is called as eugenics.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
