The Nobel Committee then prepares a report reflecting the advice of experts in the relevant fields. This, along with the list of preliminary candidates, is submitted to the prize-awarding institutions. The institutions meet to choose the laureate or laureates in each field by a majority vote. Their decision, which cannot be appealed, is announced immediately after the vote. A maximum of three laureates and two different works may be selected per award. Except for the Peace Prize, which can be awarded to institutions, the awards can only be given to individuals. If the Peace Prize is not awarded, the money is split among the scientific prizes. This has happened 19 times so far.

Physiology means physics itself.
It was included in the Nobel prizes because Alfred Nobel wanted peace, literature, medicine, physics, and chemistry to be given prizes. Economics was later added.

The Correct answer is not D.
Technically Prize in Economic Sciences is not a Nobel Prize. It was established and endowed by Sweden's central bank Sveriges Riksbank, and not by Alfred Nobel in his will. It is awarded in the same function, that is why it is generally refereed as Nobel in Economics. Also in the past it has been awarded to non economists as well.
It's official name is he "Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel".
