Solution

The correct option is D add some salt to cold solution
When more salt is dissolved in quantity of water than it can naturally hold the solution is said to be supersaturated. It is based on the principle that hot water can hold more salt than cold water. Often supersaturated solution of salts and other compounds are used to produce unusual crystal formation.

when we add some salt in cold water then a supersaturated solution of salt must form.
