b) moratorium
c) identity diffusion

 A) Identity achievement

Explanation:

According to the theory of James Marcia, identity development is the stage where a person deals with crisis of identity between two choices in the adolescent age.The person tends to opt the choice after going through crisis , exploration and committing to the choice. Earlier choice is reexamined in this stage to make the final choice of identity.

According to the question,Ethan is the stage of identity development as he is evaluating the crisis of his personal option of music career and choices given by his parents regarding traditional career choices.He made the decision of pursing music career as his passion which signified identity achievement as final result,.

Other options are incorrect because moratorium is middle crisis stage.Foreclosure is the stage of making choice in absence of exploring other options. Identity diffusion is where exploration or identity is avoided and isolated environment is preferred.He avoided any external factor that tampered his actual identity

Thus, the correct option is option(A).
