A

Highly electronegative elements

B

Moderately electronegative elements

C

Low electronegativity elements

D

Non-electronegative elements

Understanding the Answer

Let's break down why this is correct

Fluorine is the most electronegative element, and chlorine is also very electronegative. Other options are incorrect because This option mixes up moderate and high electronegativity; It assumes all metals are low and all nonmetals are high, but the question asks which category all four elements share.
