It should fit into the gap. If it needs to be capitalised in the sentence, only then should it be listed with a capital.

a) He ate An apple.
b) He ate A apple.
c) He ate an apple.
d) He ate a apple.

Which one do you think is right?

Here in the South we would say "a apple". 😊 (I don't. I'm not from the South.)
