A run out occurs when the liquid metal leaks out of the mold because of a faulty mold or flask. Scabs are a thin layer of metal that sits proud of the casting. They are easy to remove and always reveal a buckle underneath, which is an indentation in the casting surface.

Answer- B.

Scabs are sort of projection on the casting that occurs when a portion of the face of the mould or core lifts and metal flows underneath in a thin layer.
