Answer

The answer is Auditory imagery.

Explanation
Option 1: Olfactory imagery

Olfactory imagery pertains to the sense of smell. The sentence does not describe any smells, so this option is not applicable.

Option 2: Auditory imagery

Auditory imagery involves the sense of hearing. The sentence "Mrs. Baroda heard footsteps crunching the gravel" describes a sound, specifically the sound of footsteps on gravel, which makes this option correct.

Option 3: Visual imagery

Visual imagery relates to the sense of sight. The sentence does not describe any visual elements, so this option is not applicable.

Option 4: None of the choices

Since the sentence clearly involves auditory imagery, this option is not correct.
