The question is asking: The base form of a verb is also known as the A.
present tense. B. past participle. C. past tense. D. future tense. The
base form is the one from which the others are derived: so for example,
the base form would be "derive" and the past would be "derived" and the
future would will "will derive" - they are all derived from the present.
The correct answer is A. Present tense
