Solution

The correct option is A Reduce resistance in water
Aquatic organisms have a streamlined body shape. Streamline is defined as a shape that is wider at the centre and narrows down towards the periphery.
While swimming, it provides the least amount of resistance, facilitating easy movement as well as increasing speed.
So the correct answer is option B.
