The refractive index of transparent medium is greater than one because
(a) Speed of light in vacuum < speed of light in transparent medium
(b) Speed of light in vacuum > speed of light in transparent medium
(c) Speed flight in vacuum = speed of light in transparent medium
(d) Frequency of light wave changes when it moves from rarer to denser medium

(b) Speed of light in vacuum > speed of light in transparent medium
Explanation:
μ = Speed of light in vacuum/Speed of light in medium
As c > v
So, μ > 1
