The correct answer is A. Sanitization.<br /><br />Sanitization is the process of reducing the number of microorganisms to a level that is considered safe for human health. It is commonly used in food handling and toilets to ensure that they are free from harmful bacteria and other pathogens. Sanitization can be achieved through various methods such as cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization.<br /><br />Disinfection (option C) is a process that kills or inactivates harmful microorganisms on surfaces, but it does not necessarily remove all microorganisms. Sterilization (option D) is a process that completely eliminates all forms of microbial life, including bacteria, viruses, and spores. Antisepsis (option B) is the application of chemical agents to living tissues to destroy or inhibit the growth of microorganisms.<br /><br />Therefore, the correct answer is A. Sanitization.
