B. friction
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

Friction is a force that opposes motion. It acts between two objects in contact.

Friction affects how quickly a person can rub his or her hands together. The more friction there is, the more difficult it is for the person to rub hands together.

On the other hand, deceleration is a type of acceleration; it decreases speed.
