The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, "Glass, metals, ceramics are examples of," we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Materials**: The question lists glass, metals, and ceramics. We need to categorize these materials based on their properties. 2. **Understand the Properties**: - **Glass**: It is a solid material that is typically transparent and does not burn in the presence of air. - **Metals**: These are solid materials that are generally good conductors of heat and electricity and do not combust easily. - **Ceramics**: These are typically hard, brittle materials that are also non-combustible. 3. **Define Non-Combustible Materials**: Non-combustible materials are those that do not ignite or burn when exposed to fire or high temperatures. They do not produce heat and light when burned. 4. **Evaluate the Options**: - **Option 1: Non-combustible materials** - This fits because glass, metals, and ceramics do not burn. - **Option 2: Combustible materials** - This is incorrect as these materials do not burn. - **Option 3: Transparent materials** - While glass is transparent, metals and ceramics are not, making this option incorrect. 5. **Conclusion**: The correct answer is that glass, metals, and ceramics are examples of non-combustible materials. ### Final Answer: **Glass, metals, ceramics are examples of non-combustible materials.** ---
