Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Put `A=1, B = 2, C = 3, D = 4, ... X = 24, Y = 25, Z = 26`.
WIND `to W + I + N + D = 23 + 9 + 14 + 4 = 50.`
TONE `to T + O + N + E = 20 + 15 + 14 + 5 = 54`.
BUDY `to B + U + D + Y= 2 + 21 + 4 + 25 = 52.`
MORE `to M + O + R + E = 13 + 15 + 18 + 5 = 51`.
NOSE `to N + O + S + E = 14 + 15 + 19 + 5 = 53`.
So, the highest sum of the values of all its letters = TONE
