In C++, constructors cannot be declared as virtual. Virtual functions are used for dynamic dispatch and polymorphism, but constructors are called at the time of object creation and are not inherited like other member functions. Therefore, constructors cannot be virtual.

So, the correct answer is Constructor.

All ways constructor can not be virtual, but we can apply destructor as a virtual.

It shows the wrong answer.

I don't think that data members must also need to be non-virtual. Right?

I Agree that constructor can't be virtual but destructures can be virtual.

Virtual distructor is used to call the base class destructor in reverse order of herachiy of classes.

The virtual constructor is not possible because the constructor is called when an object creates but virtual is possible only after object creation so, virtual constructor not possible but the virtual destructor is possible.

Both can be declared as virtual. There is no limitation to declare only destructor as virtual.
