The correct answer is option (a) that is liver, kidneys, and lungs.

Liver withdraws toxic components, which have been ingested, removes toxic metabolites and waste products resulting from putrefaction and intestinal fermentation.

The kidneys removes toxic drugs and other chemical components, by filtering them out of the blood and removing them in the form of urine.

Lungs basically eradicates toxins in the form of carbonic gas.
