According to the UCC, an implied warranty of merchantability means that the goods are fit for the ordinary purpose for which such goods are used. Option A refers to an implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, while option C refers to an implied warranty of fitness for resale, neither of which is applicable in this case. Option D is not accurate as the goods are not necessarily of the best quality that money can buy, only reasonably fit for their ordinary purpose.
