Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

You want to know if it is true that a tessellation can be created from circles.

Tessellation

A tessellation is the covering of a plane, using one or more geometric shapes with no overlaps and no gaps.

As the attachment shows, it is not possible to cover a plane with circles, leaving no gaps.
