Keccak, for sure. I mean, it's not like the question is asking about hash functions that are actually used in the real world, is it?

I'm not sure, but I think D) TIGER could also be a possibility.

I agree with Danilo, SHA-1 seems like the most logical choice given the description.

SHA-1, obviously. It's been around for ages, and it's not like anyone would actually use it for anything important nowadays, right?

Definitely MD5! It's a classic, even if it's been compromised. Maybe the Flame malware was just a prank, right?
