Detailed explanation-1: -sublimation, in physics, conversion of a substance from the solid to the gaseous state without its becoming liquid. An example is the vaporization of frozen carbon dioxide (dry ice) at ordinary atmospheric pressure and temperature. The phenomenon is the result of vapour pressure and temperature relationships.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sublimation is a type of phase change that takes place when a solid turns directly into a gas, skipping the liquid phase.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer: The answer is a) Conversion of solid into vapours without passing through the liquid state is called sublimation. Explanation: Sublimation is a process in which a solid is converted into vapours without passing through a liquid state. Vaporisation is a phase transition from liquid to vapours.
