Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Exhibits different crystal structures at different temperatures
Explanation:
Concept
Allotropy (polymorphism in metals) is the ability of a material (e.g., iron, carbon as graphite/diamond) to exist in more than one crystal structure depending on temperature (and sometimes pressure/composition).
Eliminate options
(a) contradicts allotropy; (b) describes amorphous solids, not crystalline allotropes; (d) is incorrect because only (c) is true for allotropy.
Final Answer
Exhibits different crystal structures at different temperatures
