Solution

The correct option is B

all living things react or respond to their environment.


  1. If a plant is kept on a window sill, the plant bends outwards in the search of sunlight.
  2. The characteristic of plants by which the plant bends outwards is called phototropism.
  3. Phototropism is the result of the fact that all living things react or respond to their environment.

Hence, option (B) is correct.
