Which outcome results when a low Reynolds number fluid flows?

A)Laminar flow remains highly stable
B)Turbulence develops almost instantaneously
C)Eddy formation becomes universally prevalent
D)Fluid inertia significantly exceeds viscosity

💡 Explanation

Laminar flow remains stable at modest disturbances because viscous forces dampen perturbations, maintaining a smooth, layered structure instead of chaotic turbulent mixing. Therefore the movement stays ordered, rather than shifting into turbulent behaviours at low values.
