Answer: B.

Explanation:

When you turn on a stove, electrical energy gets transferred from the wiring to the destination within seconds. This energy results in a flame. You may be able to compare this to turning on a light bulb, you flip the switch and the light turns on, you turn it off, the light goes out.
