Answer»

Right option is (c) Compression height

Best explanation: The distance between the axis of the PISTON PIN and the top of the piston crown is called compression height and determines the compression RATIO for a given engine. THUS for the same engine, a piston with lesser compression height would give a lesser compression ratio and vice VERSA.
