<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

B. Identity Property of Addition.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that identity under addition is the element which when added to any elements gives the resultant as the same element.

i.e. if e is the identity of the set then,

a*e=a for all a belongs to the set, where * is the operation

We know that under addition operation the identity is the zero element.

Because if zero is added to any element than it gives the same element.

Reason. 1 -d+(d + e)=(-d+d)+e 1. Associative Property of Addition.

Reason 2 = 0 + e 2. Additive Inverse Property.

Reason 3 = e 3. Identity Property of Addition.
