Best answer
The correct choice is (d) They are resistant to corrosion.

Best explanation: The cast iron pipes are subjected to tuberculation which reduces their carrying capacity, they are fragile, heavier, resulting in more cost when their diameter exceeds 120cm and they are resistant to corrosion.
