Answer:

The correct option in this case will be option "b" functional fixedness.

Explanation:

Functional fixedness is defined as a cognitive bias that limits a person to use an object only in the way it is traditionally used and is commonly known as a problem-solving difficulty.  In the visor situation Brianna overcomes this problem-solving difficulty and use the dime as screwdriver to tighten the visor.
