Solution

The correct option is A Two different vibrating bodies
Quality of sound is that characteristic, which enables us to distinguish between sound produced by two different sources. It is the property of the source.
Noise and music are scientifically different but they also depend on the personal interest of a man, so can't be distinguished by quality.
Two notes produced by the same body, can't be distinguished by quality because the source is the same.
