Solution

The correct option is D nun
Options A and B are incorrect as there is no such word as "monkess" or "she-monk" in the English language.
Option C is incorrect as lady monk is a wrong usage in English.
Correct answer is option D as the feminine counterparts of some masculine nouns are entirely different words. In this case, the feminine form of "monk" is "nun".
