Correct answer: A,B,D. Step 1: Identify the origin of the names of the given elements. Step 2: Hg (Mercury) is named after the Roman god/planet Mercury, but option (c) is Pu (Plutonium), which is named directly after the planet Pluto. Step 3: Conclude that Plutonium (Pu) is named after the planet Pluto, so (c) is the correct answer.
