Solution

The correct option is D Aluminium foil
Steel and aluminium are good conductors of electricity and allow the current to pass through them easily. So, steel pin can be replaced with aluminium foil to complete the circuit.

However, plastic, rubber, and wood are poor conductors of electricity and do not allow an electric current to pass through them easily. Hence, they cannot be used to replace steel to complete the circuit.
