B
Correct answer
Explanation
Vishnu took the form of a turtle (Kurma avatar) to support the mountain Mandara during the churning of the ocean of milk (Samudra Manthan). The turtle provided a stable base for the churning rod when the mountain began to sink. Shiva consumed the poison, Brahma did not directly participate in the churning, and Indra is the king of gods but not associated with this specific avatar.
