Technically speaking, the answer is 5 because of where the curves are located.

Never mind my speech, just look at the graph, the answer is 5.

Answer:

Option B is correct that is 5 turning points

Explanation:

Turning points are those points where graph changes its direction from upward to downward

And downward to upward

We can see that graph is changing its direction at 5 different points and the points are

(-5,6) ,(-3,-3) ,(0.5,0.5) ,(3,2.5) ,(5,5)

Hence, option B is correct that is 5 turning points.
