Solution

The correct option is B Pimple
Accumulation of sebum causes growth of bacteria, since it is nutritive. This results in the formation of pimples. Inflammation of sebaceous glands, due to hormonal influence leads to acne. Oxidation of melanin and sebum causes black heads. Rashes, on the other hand, might arise due to any allergic reaction.
