The elastic limit of a material is the furthest point it can be stretched or deformed while being able to return to its previous shape. When an elastic object is stretched beyond its elastic limit, the object does not return to its original length or shape when the force is removed.

Proportional point is the point beyond in which the ratio of force to extension is no longer constant i.e hook's law is not obeyed.
While Elastic limit is the point beyond which on removal of the deformative force the object does not go back to its original length or shape. So this answers the question, although there are 2 more The Yield Point and Break Point

see as I dey laff some of una.
we forgot that after proportional point. we get elastic limit.
which is the point at which at elastic material couldn't go back to it origin size and length after been stretched or compressed

the answer is correct elastic limit, this is when the material or object can no longer return to its original shape because it is permanently deformed

Elastic limit is actually the correct answer because it is a point by which a material will teach and it's size or shape will change

The selected answer is wrong because elastic limit is the highest point a material can be strecthed and it will still retain its original positon.So the answer is meant to be A (breaking point).
