Answer 1

The correct option is D

All of the above

The plasma state consists of super energetic and super excited particles. These particles are in the form of ionised gases.

Aurora borealis is a phenomenon where the particles in the atmosphere get excited due to radiation from the sun and get ionised.
The fluorescent tube and neon sign bulbs also consist of plasma. Inside a neon sign bulb, there is neon gas and inside a fluorescent tube, there is helium gas or some other gas.
