Answer:

The correct answer is - option C. Electrical Energy, heat energy, light energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The transformation of energy from the light switch to the light bulb starts with the electrical energy to the heat or thermal energy and also generates the light energy which lights the bulb.

The amount of electrical energy is equal to the amount of light energy plus the heat energy generated by the bulb. It did not get mechanical or chemical energy.
