Answer:

The answer to your question is: Arrhenius base

Step-by-step explanation:

Arrhenius base ; an Arrhenius base is able to produce (OH-) in water, so Ca(OH)2 is an Arrhenius base.

Brønsted-Lowry base . An Bronsted and Lowry base is able to accept a proton, Ca(OH)2 can do it.

Lewis base this base is able to donate a pair of electrons, Ca(OH)2 does not have a pair of electrons to donate.

All of the above. This option is wrong only the first option is correct.
