Answer: fire which is started in a waste paper basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hazard is simply defined as the condition that will lead to an increase in loss. Property insurance are policies that can either offer liability coverage or property protection.

Property insurance include flood insurance, homeowners insurance, and earthquake insurance etc. In property insurance terminology, all of the options in the question are considered hazards except fire which is started in a waste paper basket. This is not a hazard as this is a waste that'll be disposed off
