Explanation:

The caravel's key unique feature was its versatile sail rig (a combination of square and lateen sails) that let sailors adjust to wind direction, sailing both with and against the wind. Other options are incorrect: it was not overly cheap, not the only ship for shallow/deep water, and far from the largest ship of its time.
