Concave lens
B
Convex lens
C
Convex mirror
D
Concave mirror
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An air bubble in water deflects the light away from its original path-hence behaving as a diverging lens i.e. concave lens.

Detailed explanation-2: -The air bubble inside water behaves like a Concave lens. This is because The normal at any point of a spherical bubble will pass through the center of the bubble. It is clearly visible that the air bubble acts as a diverging lens.

Detailed explanation-3: -The rays of light converge when they pass through the drops of water. Thus, the drop of water behaves like a convex lens.

Detailed explanation-4: -Due to total internal reflection light gets trapped inside the bubble, making it shine.
