B.
The summary route will remain in the table.

C.
The more specific routes will be advertised from the table.

D.
10.1.2.0/24 will still be advertised but packets destined for it will be dropped when they
reach this router.

Explanation:
If you look very closely at the routing table output, we can conclude that R1 has “autosummary” enabled under the EIGRP routing process.
D 10.0.0.0/8 is a summary, 00:23:20, Null 0
Anytime the “auto-summary” is enabled under the routing process the router will install a
summary route to “null 0” as long as the router has one or more subnets within the “classful”
network. In the case above, you have two directly connected interfaces (Serial1 & Serial2)
that are within the “classful” network. Therefore, regardless of whether you leran a route via
EIGRP that is in the “classful” network, R1 will still install this summary route to “null 0”.
