Solution

The correct option is A
Negative charges

When the ebonite rod is rubbed with the fur then the electrons from the fur are transferred to the ebonite rod then
So, the charge produced on a body that resembles the charges produced on an ebonite rod when rubbed with fur is called Negative charge.
Hence, option (A) is correct.
