The correct answer is letter D

Pseudoscience is any of the various methods, theories and systems, such as astrology, psychokinesis or clairvoyance, considered to have no scientific basis.

<u> Pseudoscience</u> describes any belief system or methodology that tries to gain legitimacy using the traps of science, but does not comply with the rigorous methodology and standards of evidence that are the hallmarks of true science.

Promoters of pseudoscience often adopt the vocabulary of science, describing conjectures as hypotheses, theories or laws, providing "evidence" of testimony of observation and "experts", or even developing what appear to be mathematical models of their ideas.

However, in pseudoscience there is no honest attempt to follow the scientific method, provide falsifiable predictions or develop double-blind experiments.
