The correct answer is option d) "head-on".

Explanation:

In hunting, the head-on angle refers to a position at which the hunter and the prey are face to face. This shot angle rarely results in a clean kill, ruins a lot of meat, and provides an animal the best opportunity to detect the hunter as the animal is in front of the hunter. At the head-on angle it is harder for the hunter to kill an animal with the first shot and ruins a lot of meat because the animal produces hormones such as adrenaline result of the stress.
