The only one that seems to fit the description is "a. Acronymic sentence".

A good example of this is P.E.M.D.A.S., which tends to be remembered as "Please excuse my dear aunt Sally", which we know is really "parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and subtraction". Also, as a side note, I just took this quiz, this is the right answer.
