Show answer
Answer: B) Beautiful
Explanation
"Beautiful" describes a noun, as in "a beautiful garden", so it is the adjective. "Beauty" and "beautification" name things, so they are nouns. "Beautifying" is the -ing form of the verb "beautify". The ending "-ful" often marks adjectives: careful, useful, hopeful.
