Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Sunday.

Easter is a movable feast, meaning its date changes each year, but it is always celebrated on a Sunday. It commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which, according to Christian belief, occurred on the third day after his crucifixion. The day of Easter Sunday is determined by a complex calculation involving the spring equinox and the full moon, but its observance always falls on a Sunday.
