[ALL of these]

Explanation

Looking at the options separately:1. Cobalt is one of the few elements that is ferromagnetic, which means it has the ability to be magnetized and attract other metals.This means it shows significant magnetic properties.2. Steel is an alloy mainly constructed from iron, and thus it typically possesses a property called ferromagnetism, which exhibits powerful attracting abilities - it is magnetic.3. Nickel like cobalt is one of a handful of elements that possesses prominent ferromagnetic qualities and so is also magnetic.Considering all these elements, we find that they all exhibit magnetic properties.
