D. (nmz001011110100\begin{array}{c|c|c} n & m & z \\ \hline 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 \end{array}

Step-by-step solution

The given logic circuit consists of an OR gate and a NAND gate.
The output of the OR gate is y=n+my = n + m.
The inputs to the NAND gate are nn and yy.
The final output zz is given by z=n⋅y‾=n⋅(n+m)‾z = \overline{n \cdot y} = \overline{n \cdot (n + m)}.
Using Boolean algebra: n⋅(n+m)=n⋅n+n⋅m=n+n⋅m=n(1+m)=nn \cdot (n + m) = n \cdot n + n \cdot m = n + n \cdot m = n(1 + m) = n.
Therefore, z=n‾z = \overline{n}.
Let's verify this with the truth table:
nmy = n + mz = NAND(n, y)
0001
0111
1110
1010

Comparing this with the given options, option (4) matches the calculated truth table.
