Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

All of the above, except "escape", are synonyms. A lacuna is a gap that generally needs to be filled. A loophole is a gap or error in the wording of a contract or law which allows for something to happen. This is similar in scope to a discrepancy as a discrepancy can lead to a gap or loophole. Hence, escape is correct.
