Answer:

The correct answer is B. Steel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Steel is a material that is used for the construction of buildings with anti-seismic protections, since due to the hardness and flexibility of this metal it allows the structures built with it to resist the attacks of different natural disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, etc.

Therefore, when constructing buildings with a view to preventing possible damage caused by natural disasters, steel is used for the construction of foundations and structures, together with concrete.
