Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) defines terms related to commercial transactions, but "default" is not explicitly defined within the UCC. Terms like "purchase money security interest," "collateral," "attachment," and "perfection" are specifically defined within the UCC, relating to secured transactions and other commercial finance areas.
