  • C(c)
  • D(d)

Step-by-Step Solution

Along every row the arrow turns a quarter turn clockwise (up, right, down). The dots increase by 1 in the top row (1, 2, 3), by 2 in the middle row (2, 4, 6) and so by 3 in the bottom row (0, 3, 6). After pointing down the arrow points left, so the answer is a left arrow with 6 dots: (c). (a) adds only 2 dots, (b) turns the arrow back to the right and (d) turns it anticlockwise.
Answer: C) (c)
