a. selectively scatter violet and blue wavelengths.
b. scatter all wavelengths of visible light equally.
c. absorb violet and blue wavelengths.
d. selectively scatter yellow, green, and red wavelengths.

Brief Explanations

White light is a combination of all visible - light wavelengths. Cloud droplets scatter all wavelengths of visible light equally, which makes clouds appear white. When all visible - light wavelengths are scattered in equal amounts, our eyes perceive the combination as white.

Answer:

B. scatter all wavelengths of visible light equally.
