Answer:

A. "during good behavior"

Step-by-step explanation:

Federal judges can only be removed through impeachment by the House of Representatives and conviction in the Senate. Judges and justices serve no fixed term — they serve until their death, retirement, or conviction by the Senate.

Hope this will help

A. "during good behavior". This means a federal judge has no limit to their terms as long as they are following the law and Constitution. A federal judge is able to keep their seats until death, resignation, or removal for unlawful behavior. A judge can be impeached for criminal behavior, similar to the president.
