Solution : The third option is the correct answer: BDAC.
The paragraph states that in his early experiments, the author was driven by the instinct to harness the forces of nature for the benefit of humanity. To achieve this, he utilised May bugs (also known as June bugs) to create a mechanism that could transmit motion and generate power.
These bugs, once set in motion, worked tirelessly for extended periods, offering a remarkable level of efficiency.
