Answer:

Static Electricity.

Explanation:

Static electricity is defined as 'an electric charge that has built up on an insulated body, often due to friction.' It is an outcome of the disparity among the positive, as well as, negative charges residing in a body or object and causes the charge to build up on the surface of the body. The accumulation of electric charges on the objects like wool, hair, silk, plastic, etc. causes them to possess static electricity. These charges stay on the surface until it is discharged or released through a source. Thus, 'static electricity' is the correct answer.
