AArise after delivery
BThe seller concealed
CAre latent and hidden

Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. That examination ought to have revealed
If the buyer examines the goods, the merchantability condition does not extend to defects that such examination ought to have revealed; it still covers latent defects.
