• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not specified
• D. Sometimes

Answer: (A)

Fire needs four things to keep burning: heat to reach ignition, fuel to feed the flame, oxygen to sustain oxidation, and the chemical chain reactions that propagate combustion. If any one of these is removed, the burning process cannot continue and the fire goes out. That’s why cooling, starving the fuel, smothering to reduce oxygen, or interrupting the chemical chain reactions will extinguish the fire. So the statement is true. The other options don’t fit because, in standard material, all four elements are required for combustion, and removing any one stops it.
