b. islamic fundamentalists lost their power in 1979.

The answer is letter d. Ayatollah Khomeini took control in 1979. Due to growing unrest and resentment of the Shah’s rule which included violations on human rights, Islamic fundamentalists led protest and strikes that overthrew his rule.  This paved the way for a theocratic government led by the Ayatollah Khomeini.  It was during this period where the Iran Hostage Crisis began.
