B) Process

Explanation:

In thermodynamics a process is a passage of a thermodynamic system from an initial to a final state of thermodynamic equilibrium.

A thermodynamic process path is the series of states through which a system passes from an initial to a final state.

Cycle is a process in which initial and final state are identical.
