Explanation
Turning the whole figure through a quarter turn anticlockwise moves every element round the centre by the same amount and turns each element with it, so the figure keeps its shape; only its orientation changes. Option B is the only one where every element has changed this way. A is the figure turned through a half turn instead. C is a water image of the turned figure, which no turn can produce. D has one element moved round with the turn but not turned itself.
