Answer»

Right option is (b) Electrical ORIGIN

Easy explanation: Magnetism is of electrical origin. The electrons revolving in an ATOM behave as tiny current loops and these current loops GIVE rise to magnetism. An electric current produces a magnetic field. This magnetic field can be visualized as a pattern of circular field LINES circling a wire.
