C. both i and ii
D. neither i and ii

Answer

option 1

Explanation

The materials which allow all the light to pass through them are called transparent materials. Materials like glass, polythene, air, water and groundnut oil are transparent materials because we can see clearly through them. Those materials which allow only some light to pass through them are called translucent materials. Light passes only partially through translucent material. Butter paper is a translucent material because it does not allow to pass all the light through it. We cannot see clearly.
