Answer»

Right option is (a) DRAG due to AIR spilled before ENTERING into the inlet is called additive drag

To elaborate: Additive drag is drag produced due to air spilled before entering into the inlet. LIFT is not always equal to drag of the body. THRUST loading and wing loading both are two different terms and their physical significance is also different. It is not necessarily that drag and lift will be always unity.
