Answer 2

A: replacing

Step-by-step explanation:

The word replacing is formed by dropping the final E and adding the suffix ing. With some exceptions, the spelling rule indicates that we should drop the final E of a word when we need to add a suffix that begins with I (ing) or al (surviv + al); (replac + ing.) For suffixes ment and able the E is not dropped: replacement; replaceable.
