I can’t see the five answer choices — could you either type them (or upload the image)?
Meanwhile, a short hint that will let you decide once you give the options:
- Any solid of revolution whose generating curve is a circle (or a shape symmetric about an axis) can have a circular cross‑section when the cutting plane is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry. Examples: sphere, right circular cylinder, right circular cone, circular paraboloid, ellipsoid, torus (in certain planes).
- Convex polyhedra (cube, rectangular prism, tetrahedron, etc.) always give polygonal planar intersections, not circles.
Send the five choices and I’ll pick which ones can yield a circular cross‑section.
