During TCAS Operations in TA only mode, RA's are?

Explanation:
In TA only mode, the system still detects other aircraft and warns you when they may be a threat, but it does not issue Resolution Advisories. Instead, any situation that would trigger an RA is conveyed as a Traffic Advisory. So, RAs are shown as TA advisories to alert you without providing a specific avoidance instruction from TCAS. This is why the best answer is that RAs are shown as TA's. The other options aren’t correct because TA only mode still delivers warnings, just not RAs; it doesn’t suppress warnings entirely or fail to display them, and it doesn’t actually issue RAs in this mode.
