(b) Optical isomerism and Geometrical isomerism
Explanation:
Stereoisomers are isomeric molecules that have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms, but differ in the three-dimensional orientations of their atoms in space. The pair of optical isomerism and geometrical isomerism are able to exhibit the phenomenon of stereoisomerism because both type of isomers differ only in their orientation in space.
Option B is the answer.
