Answer:

Correct answer is B. Aristotle

Step-by-step explanation:

You can exclude options A and C because mentioned figures were not Greeks, but Egyptians. Ramses was a common name for a Egyptian pharaohs, while Imhotep was a chancellor of pharaoh Djoser.

Therefore, it could be either Aristotle or Plato.

Correct answer is Aristotle, because without this translation his works would be probably lost, while Plato's work were not translated by House of Wisdom.
