The answer is 2) counters.
The negative space enclosed by letterform is called counter. A counter can be fully enclosed as in letters like A, o, and P; or partially enclosed in letters such as G, u, and c. Paritally enclosed counters are also called non-closed negative spaces. The size and shape of a counter can at times affect the readability of the character in some cases. It may also be used to identify typefaces in some cases.
