Answer: D. liable in strict liability based on a manufacturing defect theory.

Explanation: The company can be held liable based on manufacturing defect theory, if it is proved that it was because of a manufacturing defect on that particular toaster that lead to the dead of the boy.

Since the woman's son was electrocuted by the toaster for no apparent reason the company will be held liable for the dead of the boy.
