Solution

The correct option is C Princess

The given sentence would have Option C, princess, as the correct answer.

The sentence mentioned has ‘Prince’ as the male gender noun, which means the offspring of a King. Out of the given options, Option A, King, is a male gender noun, while Option B, Queen, is actually a female gender noun which is a counterpart of King and not prince. Option D, Heiress, is the female gender noun used as a term for the rightful successor to a kingdom.

Option C, Princess, is actually the feminine counterpart to Prince, which has the same meaning as the latter, and is therefore the correct answer.
