Brittle fracture, huh? Sounds like a new dance move I should try at the next office party. Maybe I'll call it the 'Shattered Steel Shuffle'!

Hmm, this one's a real head-scratcher. But if I had to guess, I'd say all the materials listed are prone to that dreaded brittle fracture. Better keep a helmet handy just in case!

Brittle fracture, huh? Sounds like a dangerous party trick. I'm thinking option D is the way to go, just to be on the safe side. Don't want to end up in a pile of shattered steel, you know?

Ah, the age-old question of brittle materials. I'm going to have to go with the classic 'All of the above' on this one. Can't be too careful when it comes to avoiding those nasty fractures!

Hmm, I'm pretty sure carbon steels and 400 series stainless steel are susceptible to brittle fracture. Low alloy steels might be a bit trickier, but I'd play it safe and go with option D.
