The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the material used to make the filament of a bulb. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options provided are: - Zinc - Copper - Tungsten - Electrolyte 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Zinc**: While zinc is a metal, it is not typically used for filaments due to its lower melting point. - **Copper**: Copper is a good conductor but has a relatively low melting point compared to tungsten, making it unsuitable for filaments. - **Tungsten**: Tungsten has a very high melting point and excellent conductivity, making it ideal for filaments in bulbs. - **Electrolyte**: This is not a solid material and is not used for filaments. 4. **Selecting the Correct Answer**: Based on the analysis, tungsten is the best choice due to its high melting point and good conductivity. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the filament of the bulb is made of **Tungsten**. ---
