Solution

The correct option is D Hallocinogens
Hallucinogens change mood, behaviour, thoughts and perceptions. They produce a dream like state and cause loss of contact with the external reality without any sensory stimulus. They cause hallucinations i.e. perception of what is not present around. These drugs are also known as vision producing drugs. They affect sense organs of body and produce false imaginations.
So, the correct answer is 'Hallucinogens'.
