B Correct answer
Explanation

Vamana, the dwarf avatar of Vishnu, appeared in the Treta Yuga. In this incarnation, Vishnu appeared as a Brahmin dwarf and asked King Bali for three paces of land. When granted, Vamana grew to cosmic size and covered the heavens and earth in two steps, sending Bali to the underworld with the third step. This avatar marks the transition from Satya to Treta Yuga.
