Answer:

B. The city served as the epicenter.

Step-by-step explanation:

In von Thunen's theory, the city would serve as the epicenter. This is because when people have good access to the market they can then create a whole system of agricultural land use. They are incited to make more and then one helps the other grow in size. Over time these settlements will grow bigger on their own.
