Answer 1

Hint:Names for a collection or a number of individuals or objects are collective nouns. Collective noun examples are words like party, herd, and collection.
Collective nouns are words that consist of more than one person, animal, location, thing, or concept for single objects. Without individual members, you can't have a squad; but, as a single group, we are discussing a team.

Complete answer:
Lets see options :-
Crew :- Crew means A group of individuals working on and running a ship, aircraft, etc. and collective noun is a collection of words that means group of people thus crew is the collective noun thus this option is correct.
Ship :- A ship is a large watercraft that transports goods or passengers across the oceans of the world and other sufficiently deep waterways so its not collective noun thus this option is correct.
Strike :- Strike action, also known as labour strike, labour strike, or just strike, is a work stoppage triggered by workers' mass refusal to work.thus this option is wrong too.
Crew,ship :- crew is collective noun but ship is not thus this option is wrong too.

Hence the correct answer is option A.
