The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Degree of unsaturation of $C _{10} H _{18} O =2$, but it contains no double or triple bond. Hence there are two rings - one six membered as indicated ty product and the other three membered which is cleaved by HCl due to strain. Hence $A$ has following structure.

Alcohol is formed when a saturated carbon atom bonds to a hydroxyl (-OH) group. It is an organic compound that contains a hydroxyl functional group attached to a carbon atom.

Phenol is formed when the -OH group replaces the hydrogen atom in benzene. It is an organic compound in which a hydroxyl group directly attaches to an aromatic hydrocarbon.

Ether is formed when oxygen atom bonds to two alkyl or aryl groups. It is an organic compound that has an oxygen atom that is connected to two aryl and alkyl groups.
