Solution

The correct option is B Silver polishing
Light enter through the outer (front) glass layer and reflects on hitting the silver polish painted at the back side of the glass.
Glass has no role in reflection. Also, the paint is meant only to prevent oxidation of the silver polishing. It has no role in reflection either.
