B Correct answer
Explanation

In JCL, when a space is encountered after parameters, the system assumes the parameter field is complete. This space serves as a delimiter that separates parameters from other fields in the statement. Parameters themselves are separated by commas, but the space marks the end of the entire parameter sequence.
