Correct answer is (a) PERPENDICULAR to the direction of motion

The explanation is: An AIRFOIL SHAPED body moved through a FLUID produces an aerodynamic force. The component of this force perpendicular to the direction of motion is called lift. The lift will oppose the motion and it produces the lift.
