The material ranking intended by the source is graphite, then bone, then PMMA, then low-density polyurethane foam, C. Foam’s porous structure makes its tensile strength especially low. Actual graphite and bone strengths depend strongly on grade, porosity and loading direction; the official ranking assumes the representative material forms used by this question.
