a.appreciate; depreciateb.depreciate; appreciatec.depreciate; depreciated.appreciate; appreciate

The correct answer is letter A. Typically homes APPRECIATE over time and cars DEPRECIATE over time. Properties, depending on their location, have the ability to appreciate depending on the type of urbanization that is occurring in a particular location. Most cars tend to depreciate in their values because of the wear-and-tear involved when they are used on a daily basis. But some cars, like luxury car brands (i.e. Mercedes Benz, BMW, Lexus) tend to appreciate in value.
