D Correct answer
Explanation

In the Mahabharata, Shikhandi (born as Amba) was placed before Bhishma on the 10th day because Bhishma had vowed not to attack anyone who was once a woman. This tactic allowed Arjuna to fight Bhishma from behind Shikhandi. Mohini, Uttara, and Iravan were not used for this specific purpose.
