Solution

The correct options are
A opaque
B transparent
Objects that do not allow light to pass through them are called opaque objects. They cast a shadow when a beam of light is projected onto them. Objects that allow light to pass through them are called transparent objects. They do not form shadows.
Casting of shadow by an object is independent of its mass.
