Correct Option: D

Coal worker's pneumoconiosis, colloquially referred to as black lung disease, is a lung disease that results from breathing in dust from coal, graphite, or manmade carbon over a long period of time. Inhaled coal dust progressively builds up in the lungs and is unable to be removed by the body; that leads to inflammation, fibrosis, and in worse cases, necrosis.
