The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Material**: Copper wire is made from copper, which is a type of metal. 2. **Understand the Properties of Metals**: Metals are known for their ability to conduct electricity. This is due to the presence of free electrons that can move easily within the metal structure. 3. **Evaluate Copper's Conductivity**: Copper is specifically known to be a good conductor of electricity. This means that it allows electric current to flow through it with minimal resistance. 4. **Conclusion**: Since copper wire is made of copper, and copper is a good conductor of electricity, we can conclude that copper wire is a good conductor. **Final Answer**: Copper wire is a good conductor of electricity. ---
