Solution
The correct option is B Amplifier Biosensors are the analytical instruments that measures the concentration of analyte present in the sample by specific interaction with the biomolecules which are immobilised in the device. These biomolecules can be an enzyme, any antibody, RNA/DNA, or any hormone. They recognise and interacts with the analyte producing signal which is detected by a transducer. The transducer changes the generated signal into an electrical signal which then amplified by an amplifier.
