Answer:

a. functional fixedness

Explanation:

Functional fixedness is a cognitive bias (systematic pattern in thinking that can affect your judgements). Functional fixedness limits you to use something only how the object is usually used.

Jason has overcome functional fixedness because he used a dime in away that it is not traditionally used.
