The above mentioned sentence would have Option C, “Doctor” as the answer.

In the sentence, there are three nouns which are given: the crowd, the doctor and the prince. While the crowd is a collective noun, the prince happens to be masculine in nature.

The above mentioned sentence would have Option A, “writer” as the answer.
