D.

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
The correct answer is Option B: Error

Here's why:

In PHP, variables defined outside of a function are not automatically accessible inside the function.

Scope is a crucial concept in programming.

The variable `$op2` is defined outside the function `foo()`.

Inside `foo()`, you are trying to use `$op2` without it being defined within the function's scope.

Therefore, PHP will throw an error (specifically, a notice about an undefined variable) when trying to access `$op2` within the function.

Although the `echo op2` that is not defined inside the function scope it will throw error .

To make `$op2` accessible inside the function, you would need to either:
1. Pass it as an argument to the function.
2. Use the `global` keyword to bring it into the function's scope.

Since neither of these is done in the given code, an error occurs.
