Answer:

The correct answer is - option D. A person rubs a shoe on a rug, causing extra electrons to be transferred to the shoe.

Step-by-step explanation:

Current electricity is a flow of charged particles that moves through space or any type of electrical conductor. Usually, the transfer of the electric current takes place through a wire. There are many examples of current electricity such as lightning and static electric charge.

Electric static charge is generated due to the imbalance of particles present on the surface or within the material, normally friction leads to this imbalance in particles of the material such as when a person rubs his shes on rug created an imbalance in the electrons and then transfer to the shoe.
