The graph in Option B is the one that does not show a causation

What is a causation in research

Causation in research refers to the relationship between cause and effect, where one event (the cause) brings about another event (the effect).

In the option B, this does not show a causation for the following reason. It does not show consistent directional changes or temporal sequences may suggest potential causation. Outliers and clusters in the data might indicate other influencing factors.
