Answer
Correct option: A.
Absorbent.
The substance on whose surface adsorption takes place is called an absorbent.
In other words, a substance which adsorbs another substance $($adsorbate$)$ on its surface is called an adsorbent.
For example, when hydrogen gas is adsorbed on the surface of $Pt$ metal, hydrogen is called adsorbate and $Pt$ is called adsorbent.
