Solution

The correct option is C

burning candle


  1. Luminous Bodies emit their own light energy themselves. For example, stars, glowing bulbs, burning candles, lighted torches, etc.
  2. Non Luminous Bodies do not emit light energy of their own but reflect the light energy falling on them. For example, the moon, planets, metals, stones, trees, bushes, etc.

Hence, option (c) is correct.
