The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the fourth choice or letter D "amount of destruction"

The Fujita scale (F-Scale), or Fujita–Pearson scale (FPP scale), is a scale for rating tornado intensity, based primarily on the damage tornadoes inflict on human-built structures and vegetation.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
