A sensible heat is added.

B sensible heat is removed and the latent heat is added.

C latent heat is removed.

D sensible heat is added and latent heat is removed.

ANS:B - sensible heat is removed and the latent heat is added.

Evaporative cooling is a process that employs a combination of cooling and humidification, during which sensible heat is removed and latent heat is added. In evaporative cooling, water is evaporated into the air, which absorbs heat from the surroundings to facilitate the phase change from liquid to vapor. This absorption of heat causes a decrease in air temperature, providing a cooling effect. Additionally, the process adds moisture to the air, increasing its humidity level. So, the correct statement is: "sensible heat is removed and the latent heat is added."
