Answer»

The correct answer is (c) Magnetite

The best I can explain: Pieces of naturally occurring IRON ore, lodestone or magnetite had the PROPERTY of ATTRACTING small pieces of iron. Hence, magnetite is a natural MAGNET. All natural MAGNETS are permanent magnets, meaning they will never lose their magnetic power.
