Solution

The correct option is A carbocation and carbanion
Heterolytic bond fission results in the formation of charged species, i.e., cations and anions but not free radicals because free radicals are generated by homolytic bond fission.

For example, $B$ is more electronegative than $A$ as shown in the 1.
$A$ is more electronegative than $B$ as shown in the 2.

Hence, the correct option is $D$ .
