Solution

The correct option is A True
Translucent objects are those which can make the light pass through them partially.
These objects don't obstruct or block the light completely so a faint shadow is formed.
Example: A butter paper is translucent, only some light is passed through and excess light is blocked by the paper.
Hence, the above statement is true.
