Solution

The correct option is C dark pink, green
Soak some petals of china rose in warm water for a couple of hours. The red-coloured solution obtained is used as a natural indicator for detecting an acidic or basic solution.
It turns into magenta (dark pink) in acidic medium and green in basic medium.
Hence the option D is correct.
