    Letter d is correct. Both an assault and a battery.

    Explanation:

    Assault is an attempt by one person to harm another, that is, it is an intentional attempt to use force or violence to threaten or injure others.

    Battery corresponds to an offensive touch on another person without your consent. To configure a battery situation, there must be an intentional touch harmful to another person or of an offensive nature, and touch without consent.
