Answer:

3) a product.

Explanation:

The main difference between a product (good) and a service, is that a product must have something tangible. Most products nowadays are not sold alone, they usually include services, e.g. free delivery, customer service, etc.

Products are divided into two main categories:

non-durable: limited number of times you can use them, e.g. food or fuel
durable products: you can use them many times, e.g. furniture, cars, TVs

When compared to services, products are tangible, services are intangible, e.g. a phone is a product, a telephone line is a service. Products can be stocked while services cannot, e.g. a hotel room not used today, can only be rented once tomorrow, not twice. Products exist independently of their users while services exist only when they are being provided.
