Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
A biometric device is a type of authentication system that uses physical characteristics, such as fingerprints or facial recognition, to verify a person's identity. PINs, picture passwords, and voice codes are all examples of different types of authentication systems, but they do not rely on physical characteristics as biometric devices do.
