Current has a tendency to travel from high potetial region to low potential. Its direction is opposite to the direction of flow of electrons. Hence the electrons flow from low to potential region.

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

Electron always flow from lower potential to higher potential and in the opposite to that of electric current.

Flow of almost every thing is happening from higher potential to lower electrons also.

A has lower potential (-)
B has high potential (+)
Electron (-)will move towards B (+)
so the answer will be B..........
B has high potential (+)
Electron (-)will move towards B (+)
so the answer will be B..........

Lower electric potential means there are (more) electrons or negative charges and Higher potential means there are more holes or positive charges present there. So electron will move towards higher potential.
According to the question, point A is at a lower electrical potential than point B. An electron between them on the line joining them will move towards B.

Electron will move towords lower potential that is A

According to me the electron moves towards B because electron moves towards (+)charge.

Current moves from higher potential to lower potential and the flow of electron is opposite to the flow of current that's why electrons move from lower to higher potential.

At point A potential will be low means electrons would be in excess n +ve charge would be in deficit. And opposite will be the case at B where electrons are less n +ve charge is much. So just like a general case electron will obviously be attracted towards more +ve charge.
