Solution
The correct option is D berry
In the sentence “eaten” represents that we have to look for something that is edible.
Option C: “berry” is an edible fruit and gives the sentence meaning. Thus, this is the correct option.
Options A and B: “buries” and “bury” both refer to the act of putting something in the ground or hiding something. This is irrelevant in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.
Option D: “bore” refers to making a hollow in something. This is irrelevant in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.
