What is a Brownian motion? State the assumptions of the Black-Scholes model of an asset price, and derive the time- 0 price of a European call option struck at KK, and expiring at TT.

Find the time- 0 price of a European call option expiring at TT, but struck at StS_{t}, where t(0,T)t \in(0, T), and StS_{t} is the price of the underlying asset at time tt.
