Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Implied warranties do not apply to defects that an inspection should have revealed to the buyer. If the buyer has had the opportunity to inspect the goods before the purchase, the law generally holds that the buyer has accepted the goods with any apparent defects. This means that the implied warranties do not cover these defects.
