What involves the movement of electrons in neutral objects due to the electric field produced by a charged object?

Polarization

Explanation: Polarization is the movement of electrons within a neutral object because of the electric field of a nearby charged object. It occurs without direct contact between the two objects.

For example, electrons in a metal plate can repelled by the negative charges in a plastic rod if the plastic rod is placed near the metal plate. The electrons move away from the plastic rod, thereby causing one side of the metal plate to be positively charged and the other side to become negatively charged.

what type of charge does it have? negative

it is very well related to a lot of things but with my limited knowledge i can confidently say that the answer is space.
