Which term describes a container used to hold a dead human body constructed from cardboard with a series of alternate folds and ridges?

• A. Copper
• B. Consecutive method
• C. Cove (roll, puffing)
• D. Corrugated container

Answer: (D)

Corrugated container refers to a cardboard outer container built from corrugated board, which has a series of alternating folds and ridges created by a fluted middle layer between flat liners. This construction gives both strength and light weight, making it suitable as a container to hold a dead human body for transport or cremation. The description matches cardboard with folds and ridges precisely, which is the hallmark of a corrugated container. The other options refer to materials or terms that don’t describe a cardboard, folded-container used for a body—copper is a metal casket material, a term like “consecutive method” doesn’t describe a container, and “cove (roll, puffing)” isn’t a type of outer container.
