Solution

The correct option is A Only statement I is correct.
We are able to see the objects around us due to reflection of light. Light falling on the objects get reflected and travel to our eyes, making them visible to us.
Mirrors are opaque objects, which do not allow light to pass through them at all. Instead, they reflect the light incident on them.
Therefore, only statement I is correct.
