Final Answer : A, Explanation :  A periodic tenancy is established when a lease agreement specifies intervals at which rent is to be paid but does not define a specific duration for the lease. This type of tenancy continues for the specified rental period (e.g., month-to-month, year-to-year) until either party decides to terminate the agreement, as opposed to a fixed-term tenancy which has a definite end date.
