Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (B) Option B in the figure

Explanation

A horizontal reflection keeps the letter order but flips each letter vertically. P becomes a shape with its bowl below the midpoint, Y and L invert, and the asymmetric S is vertically reversed. Only **B** applies this transformation consistently; C reverses P sideways, A retains upright P, and D retains upright S.
