Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The definition of a secured loan includes the presence of collateral which the creditor can possess and sell if the debtor defaults. Choice A has a correct definition of a secured loan but the term "priority" does not fit. Choice B has a correct definition of collateral but does not match the definition of a secured loan. Choice C has an incorrect definition of a secured loan as the creditor cannot possess collateral without a security agreement.
