Solution

The correct option is A $p o l e s$
The two ends of a magnet are called poles and are always different from each other. The end that points north, if allowed to move freely, is called the north pole. The other end is the south pole. These magnetic poles behave rather like electric charges. Each magnet has a north pole and south pole.
