Hint: Look at the given options and the values of x axis and y axis. In thermodynamics, an adiabatic process is defined as the type of thermodynamic process that occurs when heat is not transferred as well as the mass between the thermodynamic system and its surrounding environment. An adiabatic process transfers energy to the surroundings as work only. Whereas an isothermal process is a thermodynamic process in which the temperature of a system does not change means it will remain constant.

Complete step by step solution:
Isothermal process defines the constant temperature which is only possible in the given graph (c) & (d)
For adiabatic process
\[P{V^\gamma }\]= constant …….1
Therefore, we can write
$PV = nRt$
As \[P \propto \dfrac{T}{V}\]
So we have \[\left( {\dfrac{T}{V}} \right){V^\gamma }\]=constant
\[T{V^{\gamma - 1}}\]=constant ……2
Similarly,
\[V \propto \dfrac{T}{P}\]
\[\Rightarrow P{\left( {\dfrac{T}{P}} \right)^\gamma }\]= constant
\[\Rightarrow {P^{1 - \gamma }}{T^\gamma }\]=constant …..3
Therefore, differentiating equation (3) w.r.t temp T
\[{P^{1 - \gamma }}\gamma {T^{\gamma - 1}}dT + {T^\gamma }(1 - \gamma ){P^{1 - \gamma - 1}}dP = 0\]
$\therefore {P^{1 - \gamma }}\gamma {T^{\gamma - 1}}dT + {T^\gamma }(1 - \gamma ){P^{1 - \gamma - 1}}dP = 0$

Hence option A is the correct answer.

Note: In an isothermal process, the transfer of heat into or outside of the system happens too slowly so that thermal equilibrium is maintained throughout the process. At a particular constant temperature T the change of a substance of an object or system is called the Isothermal Process. The adiabatic process is the process in which a system will not receive heat and also not reject heat. In other words, the change in which no heat is supplied from outside as well as heat is not ejected from the gas but the pressure and volume will change are called adiabatic change.
