Solution

The correct option is A Actress

The answer to the given sentence is Option A, Actress.

As per the question, the sentence would have the male gender noun to be replaced by the feminine noun, after dropping the vowel, and then adding the syllable ‘-ess’. The male gender noun being ‘actor’, Option A, Actress, which is the feminine counterpart of the word and also meaning the same, a person who acts in films, is the correct answer.

Option B, Character and Option C, Actor-ess, are both wrong answers, as the former is nowhere near the meaning of the male gender noun while the latter is a word which does not exist.
