The correct answer is
voltage provided by a battery

In fact, the electromotive force (e.m.f.) of a battery corresponds to the voltage provided by the battery, and this voltage is provided by the work done by the battery which converts the chemical energy of the cell into electrical energy (the current in the circuit).
