Electroreception is limited to aquatic environments because on here is the resistivity of the medium is low enough for electric currents to be generated as the result of electric fields of biological origin. In air, the resistivity of the environment is so high that electric fields from biological sources do not generate a significant electric current. Electroreceptor are found in a number of species of fish, and in at least one species of mammal, the Duck-Billed platypus.
Before giving you the answer straight away, I’d like to make sure you understand each option.
FIRST OPTION
“He developed the three laws of motion."
This option is not only the incorrect answer, but it is an incorrect statement. Galileo did not develop the three laws of motion. Isaac Newton was the one to compiled the three laws of motion.
SECOND OPTION
“He was the first to systematically study force and motion."
This option is a statement is true, and it could also be the correct answer. Galileo Galilei used experiments to search for the cause of motion.
THIRD OPTION
“He was the first to discover gravity."
This option is not only the incorrect answer, but it is an incorrect statement. Galileo was not the person to discover gravity. Sir Isaac Newton was the first to discover gravity.
FINAL OPTION
“He improved on Newton's laws."
This option is not only the incorrect answer, but it is an incorrect statement. Galilei did not improve Sir Isaac Newton’s laws.
Now that we’ve gone through each of the options individually, we can go ahead and determine the correct answer to the question, which is...
B ) He was the first to systematically study force and motion.

I don’t really know the answer cause I need more information about the question
As far as I know, elastic distortion (or elastic deformation or temporary distortion) is the case when an object is deformed by virtue of a cause and after the cause is removed, it regains its original shape in a finite amount of time. If it fails to attain its original shape in finite amount of time or takes infinite time it becomes plastic or permanent distortion.
Inelastic materials, simply put, are non elastic materials. They do not show a fixed trend of deformation vs applied force; in fact, they might not deform at all (rigid materials) or the deformation observed is not completely recoverable; on removal of the applied force, the material doesn't return to its original shape, but to a permanent deformed shape. Such materials are called Plastic materials.
A typical material like steel shows all these forms under different conditions of loading (applied force). For extremely low magnitudes of forces, it is practically rigid. Increasing magnitudes of force show a linear elastic response, while further increase show a non-linear, plastic response, till rupture occurs when the material breaks.
