A
Positive and Positive
B
Positive and Neutral
C
Negative and Neutral
D
Positive and Negative
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -These two types of electrical charges-positive and negative-are said to be opposite types of charge. And consistent with our fundamental principle of charge interaction, a positively charged object will attract a negatively charged object.

Detailed explanation-2: -Opposite charges attract each other (negative to positive). Like charges repel each other (positive to positive or negative to negative). Most of the time positive and negative charges are balanced in an object, which makes that object neutral.

Detailed explanation-3: -Many fundamental, or subatomic, particles of matter have the property of electric charge. For example, electrons have negative charge and protons have positive charge, but neutrons have zero charge.

Detailed explanation-4: -Like charges repel each other, and unlike charges attract each other. Thus, two positive charges repel each other, as do two negative charges. A positive charge and a negative charge attract each other.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are two types of electric charges; positive and negative (commonly carried by protons and electrons respectively). Like charges repel and unlike attract.
