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.
