Solution

The correct option is D Look after

Phrasal verbs are combinations of verbs with an adjective or a preposition that function similar to an idiom, have a specific meaning to them and can be used in sentences. The meaning of the phrasal verbs given in the options are:

Option A) Look it : look like something especially when you are pretending to be some character

Option B) Look up: search for some information

Option C) Look on: to observe or watch something without participation

Option D) Look after: to take care of someone or something

The sentence talks about 'somebody has to' and 'the baby'. The most obvious phrasal verb that completes the sentence meaningfully is option D) look after which means somebody needs to take care of the baby.

The other options are incorrect as they do not complete the sentence meaningfully.
