A Correct answer
Explanation

'Peal' means ringing, which is out of context. 'Peel' means to cut away or strip off. 'Write' means to record and 'right' means privilege or claim. So, 'right' is the correct option as per the context of the sentence. 'Sea' is vast expanse of water, which is out of context. 'See' meaning view is the correct answer. 'Discreet' means cautious and 'disconcerted' means troubled. You make discreet, i.e. cautious or careful enquiries.
