Answer:

A . It will allow vertically polarized light to pass through it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Polarization is the attribute in which waves oscillate in a particular direction relative to the direction of travel. The direction of polarization determines the type of polarized light produced. Since the chemical molecules are vertically aligned, it will only allow vertically polarized light pass through it.
