the magnet will attract or repell the other magnet so magnet is one answer
the glass obviously doesn't exert a force
the ellectric current makes the ellectrons and protons, in the current, allign so that they attract or repell the other magnet

Another magnet and a nearby electric current exert a force on a magnet. Glass and plastic do not exert any force on a magnet because they are non-magnetic materials. Therefore, the correct options are A and D.
