Solution

The correct option is B Scattering of light.
The Tyndall Effect (Tyndall scattering), is light scattering by particles in a colloid or else particles in a very fine suspension. The amount of scattering is inversely proportional to the fourth power of wavelength and hence the colour of the colloidal solution is the same as the least coloured wavelength.
