Final answer:

When Owner A acquires Owner B's property, the easement remains in place and Owner A will now hold both the property and the easement.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Owner A acquires Owner B's property, the easement remains in place. The easement is attached to the property, not the owner, so it continues to exist despite the change in ownership. Owner A will now hold both the property and the easement, allowing them to continue using the easement for its intended purposes.
