The correct answer is:
**B. They face the same direction creating a stronger magnetic field.**
In a ferromagnetic material, when an external magnetic field is applied, the magnetic domains within the material tend to align in the direction of the magnetic field. This alignment increases the overall magnetization of the material and results in a stronger magnetic field.
