Solution

The correct option is B False
  1. A mirror is a shiny polished surface that reflects most of the light that falls on it and produces an image. This is why we are able to see our faces in the mirror.
  2. Reflected light can be reflected again to form images such as in a barber shop to see the back of our heads.
  3. Mirror does not absorb the light that falls on it.

Hence, given statement is false
