Solution

The correct option is C ductility
Ductility is a physical property of metals which allows them to be drawn into thin wires.This is because of the ability of the atoms to roll over each other into new positions without breaking the metallic bond. As a result, a 2-dimentional metal piece (sheet) can be easily transformed to a 1-dimensional thin long wire.
