I don't think A is the right answer.
A is absorbing sunlight for photosynthesis but that is being trqansformed into chemical energy in which CO2 and H2O form glucose.

B is absorbing EM to form heat and that is thermal energy,

C. The solar panel is absorbing EM and making electricity.

D. D is a chemical change and doesn't produce heat, at lest not much of it.

I picked B. When the interior of a car absorbs sunlight and warms up because the window is trapping/absorbing heat in the car
