Let us analyze the give options:
Option A) Correct answer - Ensured is the correct spelling; correct past form of the word ensure. It means to assure the happening of something or to give surety related to something. For e.g. He ensured that I was not disturbed while doing my work.

Note: Pronunciation may not necessarily be as per the spelling For e.g. read is read as ‘reed’ similarly read (past form of the verb read) is read as ‘red’ or mosque is pronounced as ‘mosk’. Therefore, spellings and pronunciation do not necessarily comply with each other but, both have their individual importance.
