Explanation
Turning the whole figure through a quarter turn clockwise 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 C is the only one where every element has changed this way. A is a water image of the turned figure, which no turn can produce. B has one element moved round with the turn but not turned itself. D is the figure turned through a quarter turn anticlockwise instead.
