The answer is wrong. When the risk is lower than the tolerance level, you don't take "no action." "Take no action" is not a risk response. The action you are taking is risk acceptance. But risk acceptance is not one of the possible answers. The next step after that would be to enter the risk into the risk register so that it could periodically be evaluated. What is a "low risk" today may become a "high risk" later due to changing landscape (threats). So the best answer for this question is update the risk register.

In my opinion answer must be " Apply Risk Response" because the risk level is lower than the threshold and it must be accepted. And Acceptance (as a risk response choice) must be the correct response. So by choosing acceptance, correct answer must be apply risk response. However some other sources said that answer should be "updating risk register".

The answer is correct. It is not a specific risk but rather the risk level of the project, which is within Enterprise tolerance. No Action implies accept.
