ANSWER
Collective nouns name a group of similar things or beings and are counted as a singular entity. For example, when we say 'a group of people', we're referring to the group as a whole.
Option B: 'Fleet' is a group of ships sailing together. It refers to a group and is singular. Hence it's a collective noun and option B is correct.
Options A, C and D: 'Ships' is a common noun as it refers to a number of vehicles. Also, it's plural and does not refer to a group.
'Sea' is a common noun that refers to a large water body. It does not refer to any group.
Hence options A, C and D are incorrect
