B Correct answer
Explanation

Andromeda is the nearest major galaxy to the Milky Way and is our closest galactic neighbor at about 2.5 million light-years away. It is a spiral galaxy larger than the Milky Way and is on a collision course with our galaxy. M90 is a more distant galaxy, Crab refers to the Crab Nebula (not a galaxy), and 'Giant' is too vague.
