b) sensation

Explanation:

In psychology, the term sensation refers to the process by which our brain is able to receive information via our five senses. This stimuli will later be interpreted by the process of perception.

In this example, Anthony returns home from work and he detects a strong smell of gas. He is able to smell the gas in his house because of the activation of his olfactory receptors. Since we are talking about his olfactory receptors (therefore, one of his five senses) and they are the ones that allow him to receive the information (the gas smell) this is an example of sensation.
