Option A is the correct answer for the above question.

Explanation:

In any programming language, An operator is used to perform some operation. It is fixed in between two numbers to perform the calculation. The above question asked about the Symbol ('*'), which is fixed in between two variables. so it is an operator which is called an arithmetic operator used for multiplication. So the operator is the correct answer which is stated from the option A. Hence A is the correct answer while the other is not because--

Option B states about an operand no but the operand is said to the variable or value. Option C states about a variable separator which is not the correct answer. Option D states about syntax which is also not correct. Option E states about none of the above but option 'A' is the correct answer.
