Solution

The correct option is D
Statements 1, 2 and 3 are correct

We can see an object when the light from an object enters our eyes. We see non-luminous objects (objects which do not emit light of their own) because the objects reflect the light from another source into our eyes. Therefore, the first three statements are correct.
