Correct answer: (C) Polynomials with real coefficients
Explanation
ℝ[x] is Euclidean by polynomial degree, hence a PID and UFD. Matrix multiplication is noncommutative and the matrix ring has zero divisors. Function rings have zero divisors, for instance nonzero functions supported in disjoint regions. **C**.
