Answer: Option A.

does work that can depend on the path of motion.

Explanation:

A non-conservative force acting on a particle does work that can depend on the path of motion because a non conservative force is a type of force that can remove energy from a progressive system and this energy cannot be restored back and the forces are path dependent because it matters where the particle begin or end.

It is a type of force such as friction or air resistance. This type of force does work that only depend on the path of motion.
