Detailed Solution

We need to find out what is the degree of a constant term from the given options.
Degree of a term:
In mathematics, the degree of a polynomial is the highest of the degrees of the polynomial's monomials (individual terms) with non-zero coefficients.
Constant term:
In mathematics, a constant term is a term in an algebraic expression that has a value that is constant or cannot change, because it does not contain any modifiable variables.
For example if ax2 + bx + c is a polynomial then c is the constant term.
In a constant term the power of the variable is zero.
Since, c = c × 1 = c × x0 So, its degree is zero.
Therefore (2) is the correct option.
