Explanation

Physical controls are tangible, physical mechanisms that restrict or monitor access to facilities, equipment, and resources. They include: (A) Locking systems and removing unnecessary drives - prevent physical access to hardware; (B) Environmental controls - temperature, humidity, fire suppression systems protecting physical infrastructure; (E) Monitoring for intrusion - physical security cameras, motion detectors, guards; (F) Controlling individual access into facilities - badge readers, turnstiles, security checkpoints. Choices C (password and resource management) and D (identification and authentication methods) are logical/technical controls, not physical ones, because they operate in software/systems rather than the physical world.
