Answer 2

a. If nails are made of plastic they will not grow.

b. Bells are made from metals because when two metals strike with each other produce sound but when wood strikes it doesn't produce sound.

Metals are sonorous but non-metals are not sonorous that's why bells are made from metals and not from wood because it is non-metal.
