a. sequential search
b. binary search
c. natural order search
d. selection search

Explanation:

Sequential search  is the linear searching technique that is used for identifying any particular value in the list . Mechanism of sequential search is carried through comparing and checking each element of the list till the matching element is found .

In some case if the list does not has that element is found by complete searching.It is also known as linear searching.
