Answer:

Option (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ductility of a substance is defined as the property by which a substance can be hammered and change its form into thin, stretched wires. In simple words, the ductile materials can be drawn into thin wires. Some of the examples of ductile substances are gold, copper and silver.

The rocks also have this property which means that they have the capacity to get deformed into enormous strains in the absence of large scale fracturing.

Thus, the correct answer is an option (3).
