Which statement about Pine is true?

• A. Pine is Softwood
• B. Pine is Oakwood
• C. Pine is Metal
• D. Pine is Plastic

Answer: (A)

This question tests how wood types are categorized. Pine comes from a conifer and is classified as softwood. Softwoods, like pine, are typically lighter and easier to work with than hardwoods and come from gymnosperm trees. In contrast, oak is a hardwood, derived from a flowering deciduous tree, and is generally denser. Pine is not metal or plastic. So the statement that Pine is Softwood is the accurate one.
