Loss of kinetic energy in perfectly elastic collision is should be zero but for elastic collision it may be vary between 1 to 99% loss.

I too think it is option B.

For perfectly elastic bodies, losses of KE during collision is zero.

For elastic body impact coefficient of restitution is 0 to 1. So, there is some loss in KE.

Since, in elastic collision momentum and K. E both remain constant. So, I agree.
