    Correct Answer

    Correct Answer
    A. Conditional conveyance of property as for security on a loan; pledging, lien
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "conditional conveyance of property as for security on a loan; pledging, lien." This means that a mortgage is a legal agreement where property is used as collateral for a loan. It involves the borrower giving the lender a conditional conveyance of the property, meaning that if the borrower fails to repay the loan, the lender has the right to take ownership of the property. This is done through the creation of a lien, which is a legal claim on the property to secure the loan.
