Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct option is;

C. It has a high albedo

Explanation:

The measure of the property of a material that indicate the propensity of the material to reflect light without the light being absorbed is known as the measure of the albedo

A white surface reflects most of the incident light on its surface, and therefore is said to have a high albedo while a dark surface absorbs most of the incident light and is said to have a low albedo

A natural item with a low albedo is grass which reflects 20% of the radiation while the Badwater Basin which is a white sodium chloride salt flat has a high albedo.
The answer is ” c ”it has a high albedo hope it helps you good luck
