B. The clock in the tower keeps time by a complete resolution of the gears every hours.
“Resolution” means “a firm decision to do or not do something”, and is therefore out of place in the sentence. A better word to use would be “revolution”, meaning “an instance of revolving”. Used in the sentence, it would express that the clock keeps time by revolving around the face once every hour.
