Solution

The correct option is C DDT

DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) is an organochlorine insecticide which is a colorless, crystalline solid, tasteless and almost odourless chemical compound.

Trinitrotoluene (2,4,6-trintrotoluene, TNT) is an extensively used explosive, which has been detected in soil and water at military sites and at munitions manufacturing and training operations.

Option C is correct.
