The term representing the account where blocked funds must be held is which?

Blocked funds must be kept in a separate, designated blocked account that keeps the asset segregated and inaccessible for ordinary use. The term that matches this holding arrangement is an interest-bearing account, which denotes a separate account used to hold the blocked funds while allowing them to accrue interest under the sanctions framework. The other options relate to reporting or to assets that are no longer blocked, not to the actual holding vehicle for blocked funds.
