  • Etiolation refers to a natural phenomenon, often seen in plants where the seedling is found to be elongated in search of a light source.
  • So when the tomato seedlings were kept in a dark room then after a few days white-coloured seedlings were formed because of this process called etiolation.

Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
