Solution

The correct option is C NAND gate

NAND gate is known as universal gate.

A universal gate is a gate which can implement any Boolean function without need to use any other gate type. NAND gates are economical and easier to fabricate and are the basic gates used in all IC digital logic families.

A NAND gate is a logic gate which produces an output which is false only if all its inputs are true; thus its output is complement to that of an AND gate. A low output results only if all the inputs to the gate are high; if any input is low, a high output results.
