AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) household appliances. High cube containers, which are taller than standard shipping containers, are commonly used to transport household appliances and other lightweight but bulky cargo. The extra height provides more space for these types of items without exceeding weight limits. In contrast, dense bulk cargoes, fragile items, and heavy industrial machinery would typically be better suited for standard or specialized containers that can accommodate their weight and protection requirements.
