Answer»

Right answer is (c) Stainless-steel

Easy explanation: Stainless steel in CONTACT with a saline electrolyte produce a POTENTIAL difference of 10 mV between the electrodes which is much more than the limit (i.e 2.5 mV). Ad-AgCl electrodes give ALMOST noise free characteristics. They are also found to be acceptable from the POINT of view of long TERM drift.
