Option (B)is correct.

Alternating electric and magnetic fields has electromagnetic radiation that travel in the form of a wave.

The varying or alternating electric field produces the varying magnetic field.This varying magnetic field in turn produces varying electric field . Thus these varying electric and magnetic fields travel in the form of electromagnetic waves. These electromagnetic waves travel with the velocity of light.These are transverse in nature.
