Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Perfection of a security interest refers to the process of giving the secured party greater rights to the collateral than any other creditor of the debtor. This is typically done by complying with the requirements of the applicable state law, such as filing a financing statement or taking possession of the collateral. Once perfected, the security interest is enforceable against third parties and the secured party has the right to take possession of and sell the collateral to satisfy the debt if necessary. None of the other options in the question describe the process of perfection of a security interest.
