C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It isn’t necessarily bad to put metal in a microwave oven, but it can cause cooking problems or other trouble. Microwaves cause currents to flow in metals. In a thick piece of metal, these currents won’t cause problems for the metal.

Detailed explanation-2: -Metal is not safe in the microwave if: There are multiple pieces of metal next to each other (like the tines of a fork) The metal has an extremely thin or sharp edge (aluminum foil, gold trim on tea cups or plates)

Detailed explanation-3: -Metal pans-here’s what you need to know Microwaving food in a metal pan is not unsafe but it is inefficient. That’s because the microwaves cannot penetrate metal, so they only reach the top of the food, Schiffmann explains.
