Correct Answer: A (A person who changes sides or allegiances)

Explanation:

The idiom “a turncoat” is used to describe a person who changes their opinions, loyalties, or beliefs, often in a way that is seen as disloyal or traitorous. The term likely comes from the idea of a military soldier who literally turns their coat to change sides in battle. In more general usage, a turncoat might be someone who switches political parties, changes their religious beliefs, or betrays a friend or ally. The term has a negative connotation, suggesting that the person is untrustworthy and willing to sacrifice their principles or values for personal gain.
