The common difference of 0 means that each term in the sequence is the same. Since the thirty-eighth term is given as 2.1, we know that every term in the sequence is 2.1. Therefore, the eighty-fifth term of the sequence is also 2.1. Thus, the correct answer is 2.1.

An arithmetic sequence with a common difference of zero means that the terms of the sequence are all the same. Since the thirty-eighth term of the sequence is 2.1, this means that all the terms of the sequence are also 2.1. Therefore, the eighty-fifth term of the sequence will also be 2.1.

So the correct answer is 2.1.

To find the eighty-fifth term of the arithmetic sequence with a common difference of zero, we can observe that each term is the same as the previous term. Since the common difference is zero, the sequence remains constant throughout. Therefore, the thirty-eighth term of 2.1 will also be the eighty-fifth term. Hence, the correct option is 2.1.
