Answer: A
Blowfish is a Symmetric Encryption Algorithm.
Blowfish, designed by Bruce Schneier in 1993, is a symmetric-key block cipher: the same secret key, of 32 to 448 bits, is used both to encrypt and to decrypt 64-bit blocks of data. It was designed as a fast, free alternative to DES.
Hashing algorithms (such as SHA) produce fixed-length digests and cannot be decrypted, digital signature algorithms (such as DSA) authenticate messages, and asymmetric algorithms (such as RSA) use a public and private key pair. Blowfish is none of these.
