Answer : Option B
Explanation :
The air pressure in an aircraft (cabin pressure) is kept higher than the atmospheric pressure at high altitudes to avoid discomfort to passengers due to low outside air pressure. This pressure is called cabin pressurization. Hence the normal atmospheric pressure is maintained by the use of air pumps.
