i think its (a) as AC causes more injuries than DC
.Direct current (DC) is more likely to cause muscle tetanus than alternating current (AC), making DC more likely to "freeze" a victim in a shock scenario. However, AC is more likely to cause a victim's heart to fibrillate, which is a more dangerous condition for the victim after the shocking current has been halted.

High voltages in high frequencies run across the surface of the skin. high voltage with high current in the low cycle does cause fibrillation as well as low voltages - AC of course. DC causes severe burns and deep muscle burn as well.
