D Correct answer
Explanation

The relative pronoun 'what' is incorrectly used here. In English grammar, 'what' cannot function as a relative pronoun to refer to a preceding noun phrase. The correct forms are 'that require' or 'which require' when referring to 'steps'. Other options (a, b, c) use grammatically correct constructions.
