Explanation:

In the Northern Hemisphere, due to the Coriolis effect, winds swirl counter - clockwise into a low - pressure center. In a high - pressure system in the Northern Hemisphere, winds swirl clockwise. Since the question is about a low - pressure center in the Northern Hemisphere, we consider the Coriolis - induced wind pattern for low - pressure.

Answer:

B. counter - clockwise
