Answer:

a. Selenium

Explanation:

Selenium is a non metal but though rarely, it is considered to be a metalloid.

(Metalloids are elements intermediate between metals and nonmetals and are known to have partly metallic and partly non metallic properties.)

Selenium is in group 16 of the periodic table below sulphur and has average properties of the group elements above and below it in the periodic table..
