The word that is spelled incorrectly is d) moister. It should be spelled moisture.

I agree with Linda C. that d) is most likely the correct answer to your question, but it's interesting that moister is indeed an English word if perhaps a rarely-occurring one; it's the comparative of the adjective moist and will apparently be recognized as legitimate by most spell-checkers. So kind of an unusual question in that normally the word that is misspelled is chosen to look like an obvious mistake, not a word that arguably is correct in other contexts or meanings.
