please select the best answer from the choices provided
o a
o b
o c
o d

Explanation:

Mosaics are typically created by arranging small pieces (like stones or tiles) on a surface and then using a filler (such as mortar) to connect them. Option a is more about stained - glass (though joined by leading, but the description of colored by metallic salts is more for stained - glass). Option b mentions leading which is more associated with stained - glass or some glass - based artworks rather than the general definition of mosaics. Option c describes collage (as it says "pasted" and "means 'to glue'"). Option d correctly describes the process of making mosaics with stones/tiles and a filler.

Answer:

D. images made by arranging stones or tiles that are then embedded with a filler to connect the colored pieces.
