Buoyancy force is the upward force exerted by the fluid on the object placed in a fluid and this force is equal to the volume of the fluid displaced.

Question is incorrect. Buoyant force is always equal to weight of fluid displaced. A body will sink whn buoyant force is less than weight of the body

Normally outside body weight is normal but inside water to the body. Body weight will be decreased main reason buoyancy force.

How can it be the correct answer?
The value of Buoyancy force is same as the weight of the liquid displaced by the body.
The value of Buoyancy force is same as the weight of the liquid displaced by the body.

The force of buoyancy is less than the weight of the body then only the the body will sink. Am I correct?

The answer is c because if density of solid is greater than density of liquid then the solid will sink.

The answer is right because an upward force is less than the body will sink down.
