B Correct answer
Explanation

Magnetic poles always exist in pairs - you cannot have an isolated north or south pole. Every magnet has both a north pole and a south pole, and they always occur together. If you break a magnet, each fragment becomes a complete magnet with its own north-south pole pair. Poles don't exist individually, in groups separately, or fail to exist.
