(D) Black
Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation
### **Official Solution & Concept Analysis (GATE BT 2025 Q.8)**
**1. Governing Concept**:
- **Topic**: Spatial Aptitude & Subtractive Color Mixing (CMYK Model)
- Subtractive primary colors: **Cyan (C), Magenta (M), Yellow (Y)**.
- $\text{Yellow} + \text{Magenta} = \text{Red}$
- $\text{Yellow} + \text{Cyan} = \text{Green}$
- $\text{Magenta} + \text{Cyan} = \text{Blue}$
- $\text{Yellow} + \text{Magenta} + \text{Cyan} = \text{Black}$
**2. Option Analysis**:
- **Option (A) is CORRECT**: Accurately identifies the chromatic overlaps of the subtractive primaries.
- **Options (B), (C), and (D) are INCORRECT**: Confuse additive color mixing (RGB) with subtractive color mixing (CMY).
**3. Final Answer**:
- **Correct Choice**: **A**
