In the English Language, the Word "Apple" Is Used to Represent

In the English language, the word "apple" is used to represent a piece of fruit with a stem, seeds, and a thin red skin that can be eaten raw or baked into a pie. There is no inherent reason, however, for calling this fruit an "apple." It could just as easily have been called an orange, a banana, or a tomato. What does this suggest about the nature of language?

A) Language is abstract
B) Language is ambiguous
C) Language is arbitrary
D) Language is consequential
