F
a negative test charge
G
a positive test charge
H

Explanation

An electric field is defined by the force it exerts on a positive test charge. A neutron has no net charge, and a dipole has both positive and negative charges, so neither is the standard particle used to define the field. Choice G is “a positive test charge.”
