Solution
The correct option is A Reflection Objects are visible to the eye when light strikes the surface and reflect back itself into the eye. Opaque objects show this phenomenon.
However, in the transparent objects, the incident light on their surface gets transmitted, hence does not reflect back to the eye and appear transparent.
