B

Correct Answer

A function that is both injective (one-to-one) and surjective (onto), enabling a perfect pairing between domain and codomain

Explanation

Bijections (1-1 correspondences) prove two sets have the same cardinality. Inverses always exist for bijections. Bijections from a set to itself are permutations. Cantor used bijections to compare infinite set sizes.
