Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Eliminitivism.

Explanation:

Eliminative materialism also known as eliminativism is the revolutionary argument that our common-sense perception of the brain is profoundly wrong and that some or all of the common-sense mental states do not exist and have no influence in well-established cognitive science.

In the case given, we are eliminating the basic perception of <em>having a headache </em>for <em>"My C-fibers are firing"</em> which is much more of a scientific description of the simple pain in the head.
