We are asked to determine on which properties the focal length depends.

The focal lens is a function of the refractive index which in turn is a property of the material the lens is made of, therefore, the focal lens depends on the properties of the material the lens is made of.

The focal length also depends on the curvature of both surfaces of the lens.

therefore, the right answers are A and B.
