How would you fill in the blank with the present perfect tense of the verb study?

I'd advice you to ignore, frankly, some of the advice you've been given on this thread. The four options you put forward are in the following tenses: (1) simple past; (2) present perfect; (3) past perfect; (4) future perfect. Hence, the present perfect of the sentence is "Norman has studied algebra".

If you fill in the blank with the present tense you say "Norman studies algebra" or "Norman is studying algebra."
None of the choices you list are present tense, but they are all correct grammatically - the one you use just depends on what you are trying to say.
"What did Norman do today?"
"He studied algebra for three hours."
"How much mathematics does Norman know?"
"Norman has studied algebra, geometry, and calculus."
"Why couldn't Norman help his son with homework?"
"Norman had studied algebra in high school, but he forgot much of it."
"What work will Norman be doing?"
"By the time he graduates, he will have studied algebra long enough to be a math instructor."

If you only have those four to choose from, there is no present tense among them.

My expensive that's amazingly certainly B. has studied. because of the fact: A. is approximately previous indefinite annoying C. is approximately previous appropriate annoying. D. is approximately futer appropriate annoying. So your answer is B. this is approximately contemporary appropriate annoying. appropriate regards Afaq Ali.
