Solution

The correct option is A lives
Nouns are words that name people, things, places, animals, etc.
When a noun ends with an 'f' or 'fe', we form the plural noun by replacing it with 'ves' ('fe' in 'life').
Option A: 'Lives' is the plural form of the noun 'life'. Hence option A is correct.
Option B: 'Lived' is a past tense verb and not a noun. Hence B is wrong.
Option C: 'Life' is a singular noun that names 'the existence of an individual'.
Option D is wrong because the answer lies in A.
