Answer:

In the illustration of diffuse reflection, although each ray of light follows the law of reflection we do not see an image because individual rays of light are scattered in different directions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diffuse reflection is the phenomenon of scattering of the incident ray at different angles instead of one. We are able to see an object due to the diffuse refection of light.

This phenomenon also obeys the law of reflection of light i.e. the angle of incident is equal to the angle of reflection.

So, the correct option is (B) " Although each ray of light follows the law of reflection".
