Potential transfer from high to low but current reverse. So it's B.

Electrons moves from low potential to high potential but in the case of current it will be reverse. So the answer will be B only.

Conventionally, direction of current is from high potential to low potential which is called conventional current and electronic current is always opposite to conventional current.

Electron will move towards point B because due to higher potential the sign on point B should be + and it will attract the electron toward itself.

The electrons move from higher to lower electric potential so if an electron is added it moves towards B.

A positive charged ion moves from high potential to low potential. But a negatively charged ion means electron moves from low potential to high potential.

Current flow is always opposite to electron flow. The Current direction is from high potential to low potential. And electron flow is from low potential to high potential.

Current will flow higher potential to lower potential but we know that electron always flows in the opposite to the direction of current.

A has lower potential (we can denote it by -)
B has high potential (+)
Electron (-)will move towards B (+).
As electrons flow from low to the high potential region (or in easy terms the opposite + attracts - ).
So, Answer is B.
B has high potential (+)
Electron (-)will move towards B (+).
As electrons flow from low to the high potential region (or in easy terms the opposite + attracts - ).
So, Answer is B.
