Solution

The correct option is D Titanium
Titanium is known as the space age metal as it is strong and durable. It is used to make spacecrafts and jets. It is expected to replace most of the metals used in industries. However, it is expensive and its difficult mining process is keeping it from being used as commonly as aluminum or steel.
