Answer 1

OD) The singular form of 'caves' must be 'café' or 'cavis.'

Step-by-step explanation:

The singular form of caves must be cave, as café or cavi mean totally different things. OA is true, as we have the examples of data, trivia, among others,

OC also true, as we have the examples of cactus – cacti and focus – foci, and OB is true as well, as we can defer by analysis – analyses , ellipsis – ellipses.
