True, More light is transmitted through a translucent material than through an opaque material.

Answer: A

Explanation

Depending on the ability to pass the light through the body, materials can be classified into transparent material, translucent material and opaque material.

Transparent materials are those that are able to pass most of the light hitting it. Examples are water, glass etc.

Translucent materials are able to pass some portion of light through them. Example - plastic.

Opaque materials are those in which light will not pass through. Majority of the light is reflected or absorbed. Example- wood.
