Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Shadows do not form on transparent objects. Transparent objects do not cast shadows because light passes through them fully. However, objects such as glass slabs are not completely transparent. Light is refracted through such objects, causing the formation of shadows. Refraction is also essential for our ability to see such objects. However, fully clear objects cannot cast shadows.
The correct statement would be that the opaque objects cast shadows.
