My answer is: c.
Factors increasing DLCO include polycythaemia, asthma (can also have normal DLCO) and increased pulmonary blood volume as occurs in exercise or congestive heart failure. Other factors are left-to-right pulmonary shunting that occurs in left heart failure, alveolar hemorrhage, and smoking within 24 hours of the test

The DLCO Test
This test involves measuring the partial pressure difference between inspired and expired carbon monoxide. It relies on the strong affinity and large absorption capacity of erythrocytes for carbon monoxide and thus demonstrates gas uptake by the capillaries that is less dependent on cardiac output
