B

The Tyndall effect is defined as light scattering by particles in a colloid or particles in a very fine suspension. As all the examples below show Tyndall effect because:
1. Sunbeam coming from behind the cloud looks luminous because of the scattering of light.
2. Milk in a glass appearing faint blue, since milk is a colloid and light passes through it is scattered.
