Answer»

The CORRECT choice is (d) Rosewood

The best explanation: All rosewoods are strong and heavy, taking an excellent polish, being suitable for guitars (the fretboards on electric and acoustic guitars OFTEN being made of rosewood), marimbas, recorders, TURNERY (billiard cues, fountain pens, black pieces in chess sets, etc.), handles, FURNITURE, and LUXURY flooring, etc. Rosewood oil, used in perfume, is extracted from the wood of Aniba rosaeodora, which is not related to the rosewoods used for lumber.
