D Correct answer
Explanation

Nikolaus Otto invented the four-stroke internal combustion engine in 1876, which became the foundation for most modern gasoline engines. His 'Otto cycle' engine design was far more efficient than earlier attempts by Lenoir and others. While Karl Benz applied this engine to automobiles, he did not invent the engine itself - that was Otto's contribution.
