Solution
The correct option is A LPG Wood has now been replaced by LPG as a domestic fuel used for the purposes of cooking. That's because burning of wood produces a lot of smoke and leaves behind residue. LPG on the other hand is a clean burning gas that does not leave residue.
However, in some rural areas, wood is still used, but less widely.
