What is the difference between the metallic comb and the plastic comb?

A.The metallic comb does not allow charges to flow through it like the plastic does.

B. The metallic comb is a conductor, allowing the charges to flow through it rather than build up like in the plastic.

The correct statement is:

B. The metallic comb is a conductor, allowing the charges to flow through it rather than build up like in the plastic.

Metallic combs are made from conductive materials that allow electric charges to move freely, whereas plastic combs are insulators that tend to hold static charges and do not allow charges to flow easily. This is the primary difference between the two types of combs.
