Answer»

The correct CHOICE is (c) Veneered wall

For explanation I WOULD SAY: In a veneered wall, the FACING is attached to the backing but not bonded. In a faced wall, the facing and the backing are bonded together. A cavity wall is the one that consists of TWO leaves. A panel is a non-load bearing wall.
