B Correct answer
Explanation

A turbocharger is a turbine-driven forced induction device that compresses the air flowing into the engine. It uses exhaust gas to spin a turbine, which compresses intake air, allowing more oxygen into the combustion chamber. This has nothing to do with gears (A) or fuel injection (C). Option D is incorrect because a turbocharger only deals with air compression, not fuel delivery.
