The correct option is (a) Prim’s Algorithm
To explain: When working on the graph in the computer science field, the Prim’s Algorithm for spanning trees uses a minimum ternary heap as there are delete operation equal to a number of edges and decrease priority operation equal to the number of vertices associated with the graph.
