Intersensory redundancy refers to the overlap of information across different senses, enhancing the perception of a particular stimulus. In option B, the child is using both visual (observing mother's expressions) and auditory (listening to mother scold) information to perceive the same stimulus (mother's disapproval). This redundancy enhances the child's understanding and perception of the situation.
