I believe the correct answer is "C - Poka Yoke." Kaizen is a mindset, a practice, and an approach to work that encourages every part of the value stream to proactively look for ways to improve work quality and reduce waste. On the other hand, Poka-Yoke is a Lean technique that encourages the use of visual signals, tools, and systems that make waste due to human error extremely unlikely.

The correct answer is C. Poka-yoke. Explanation: Poka-yoke is a Japanese term that means "mistake-proofing" or "error-proofing." It refers to any mechanism in a process that helps an operator avoid (yokeru) inadvertent mistakes (poka). In this case, attaching a fuel tank cap to the fuel tank door prevents the user from forgetting to put the cap back on after refueling, thereby reducing the chances of errors and improving safety and functionality.
