Answer 1

The correct option is A <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> South Africa

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> South Africa became part of BRIC in 2010. This added another letter to ‘BRIC’. The first letters of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa contribute to the name ‘BRICS’.
