Explanation / Answer
The correct answer is d.
Explanation : Consent in simple terms can be defined as the permission to do something or an agreement to something. (eg:research). Consent adheres to the principles of free will which states that a person has a right to say no whenever the person chooses to, according to his/her level of comfort. So this means that a person can so a no/refuse to give consent even if previously agreed for the activity, stop the activity midway if the person feels uncomfortable due to any reason and that consent isn't given if under alcohol or any other substance intake. Therefore the correct answer is d.
