B Correct answer
Explanation

"which is" the correct phrase here as we use relative pronoun 'which' for things or items. As it states a general fact present tense will be used. Option # is incorrect as it makes the first part of the sentence an independent clause, whereas it needs to be a dependent clause to make the sentence meaningful.
