Explanation
Immensely is an adverb meaning 'to a great extent; extremely' and typically modifies adjectives or verbs to indicate intensity. In option (a), 'immensely happy' correctly uses the adverb to intensify the adjective 'happy' — a standard, natural collocation. In option (b), 'contribution was immensely' is grammatically incomplete and incorrect. In option (c), 'produce oil immensely' is awkward and incorrect; 'in immense quantities' would be proper. In option (d), 'eating breakfast immensely' is semantically incorrect. Therefore the answer is (a).
