Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Torsion is application of torque to a shaft to turn it about its longitudinal axis. When torque is applied to a shaft the circle remains unchanged in a circular state, its cross section does not warp but remains flat with a straight radial lines but its longitudinal lines changes into an helix intersecting the circular shaft
