Answer:
The three types of magnets are temporary, permanent, and electromagnets.
Magnets are categorized by their source of magnetism.
Temporary magnets become magnetized in the presence of a magnetic field. They lose their magnetism gradually, when the magnetic field is removed. Some irons and iron alloys, as well as paper clips and nails, function as temporary magnets.

Permanent magnets do not easily lose their magnetism. These magnets may be naturally-occurring (“rare-earth”) elements, or chemical compounds.
